Hello conductor!
If we haven't met, my name is Dr. Michael Carney and I am a college professor with extensive professional experiences conducting choir, band and orchestra.
My favorite topic is conducting because when you understand conducting, you will be able to experience the joy of shaping music with your hand gestures, facial expressions and leadership.
This is an incredible "super power" which is very difficult to learn on your own.
I created "The Art of Conducting" course to teach everyone how to become a great conductor.
With these skills, you will be able to stand up in front of any ensemble and make the music much more beautiful, expressive, powerful and meaningful.
