Ahh, a friendly maestro that's a superb teacher and pianist! Always enjoyed his concerts in SF, including the first after which he had been appointed music director of the Symphony. First item played was the Coronation March for Alexander III by Pyotr Tchaikovsky. I pray and trust that he will stay with the SF Symphony for many more years.
Well, if you play in an orquestra or sing in a chorus you'll notice how easier it is for the player or singer to have precise information from the conductor. Some pieces you can play without conductor, provided that you all agree in the rehearsals how to play, but how are you going to play Pines of Rome, Alpine Simphony, Death and Transfiguration, Rites of Spring, etc. without a conductor?
Excelent Master Class...thank you Maestro
this is incredibly awesome
Another excellent lesson - that you

25:19 or 25:43 : It's remarkable how a musician like this sings as though he is almost tone deaf.
Excellent masterclass. One observation: why there are some conductors that adapt an extremely fast tempo? I can't stand it. It destroys the music.
should be thank you - my brain is trying to absorb too much

Do you really believe this needs a conductor at all? It's not apparent from this video that any of the cuing is necessary.
Bro u sound like a butthurt chamber musician
Do you really believe that all conductor's job is just to analyse the piece, beat time, and cue?
