Specialised Orchestral Conducting

This field offers a small number of students showing the abilities required training that leads to the conducting of professional orchestras (symphony orchestras, chamber orchestras, operas, specialist ensembles). 

It requires the skills of orchestral instrumentalist and keyboardist, an enormous breadth of artistic culture (including in the opera and oratorio repertoires) and the ability to read scores with ease.  Beyond these musical qualities, orchestra conductors must also acquire leadership and management qualities (including managing rehearsals).
