I got to conduct orchestra today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was great fun, and my classmates were wonderful. We worked through several pieces, stopping every now and then to work on parts. And I think that they even sounded better by the end of the hour. (Plus, several of my friends said that they liked my conductinig better than our concertmaster's - personally I think he's the better comductor, but he's a perfectionist which gets to be a bit much for some people).And, yeah, I am (and have been) planing on majoring in music education in college.
