Kent Moussault - Conducting Lessons Online
This course is open to all people interested in the world of orchestral conducting. Some people will be interested in learning the craftsmanship and artistic side of conducting, and others will perhaps be more interested in leadership skills from the conductor’s perspective. It is best suited to people with some previous musical background to get the most out of our sessions. A basic knowledge of music theory is encouraged. For me, it is important to see what I can offer you as a tutor in the short and the long term since the learning curve is very different between people. Therefore, I would always make a custom study program to cater to every student’s needs to develop as a conductor/musician.
