CANFORD 2008 - Wind Band Conductors Course 3 - 10 August 2008, at Sherborne UK BASBWE Wind Band Conductors' Course in association with the BASBWE Education Trust Timothy Reynish, Mark Heron, Philip Scott This course is for wind band conductors at the intermediate and advanced levels. Up to twenty-five students will be accepted as "active" participants working from two repertoire lists. Lists A and B are for the experienced student whilst list B is for the less experienced student. Observers are also encouraged and will be fully involved in general technique sessions, discussions and playing in the class ensemble, but they will only conduct at the discretion of the tutors. The class will explore conducting techniques, score preparation, rehearsal and training skills. A CD and score library will be available for reference and special emphasis will be placed on extending the knowledge of repertoire at all levels. A DVD recorder will be used to analyse technical requirements and development. The course will run concurrently with the Symphonic Wind Orchestra and there will be close liaison between the two. All participants should bring with them any instruments they play, in order to accommodate ensemble work within the class. (If for any reason you are unable to bring your instrument(s), please let the summer school office know when you enrol.) Students are required to prepare their chosen repertoire thoroughly before commencement of the course. All students are asked to prepare the Kozhevnikov to conduct in the first session.
