Davidson College Symphony Orchestra Conductor’s Concert

We are delighted to present The Conductor’s Concert, featuring five student conductors leading the Davidson College Symphony Orchestra strings. This performance was the final exam for these conductors taking MUS 312: Conducting. As the culmination of their semester-long work on score study and interpretation, rehearsal technique, and hand/baton technique, we were thrilled that our students were able to perform for a small, LIVE audience!
