What a beautiful demonstration of empowering young people and the joyful nature of these courses!

I wish this had been running when I was in NYCGB! Sitting through many rehearsals (especially if I'd lost my voice) and listening to and watching the conductor was what got me into conducting choirs at uni and afterwards but it would have been amazing to have had an opportunity to work with NYCGB on it. Well done for getting this going.

Sadly, as you're female (based on your name - apologies if I'm wrong), based on the evidence of this clip, you wouldn't have been offered the opportunity.

What do the hands symbolise?

[@gillchatfield3231]

Any reason why none of the young women are conducting? 'Balance of power'? Very disappointing.

[@sam990ish]

What a ridiculous comment. You could say why are no black people conducting, or no asians, or no blue-eyed- Maybe no females signed up to do the course? Keep your ridiculous comments to yourself!

Maybe you should have been there
