Well, in my opinion it reduces duplication, because both AR types deal
with the same action: conducting. I know that "chorus master" is a well
known term, but the problem is that it's a noun. For AR phrase you need
a verb and given that chorus master does "conduct" a chorus, having just
AR type seems better to me.


Ha! As usual, my question was not precise enough. As I said, I like
"conducted choir" better than "performed chorus master".

In your first post, you spoke of a "first idea" then of "another idea". I
was trying to understand what are the advantages and drawbacks of each idea.
