[BadSteve88]

dude, show us how to conduct Ferneyhough! Do a 5/7 meter!!! c'mon, man up!!

[LeavittMusicService]

You got to admire a guy who has a shirt that matches the walls.

P.S. just conduct 9/8 in THREE.

[pargeterw]

Oh god :'(

[bicguitar]

This is obviously a crap example of conducting and I find it amusing (and worrying) at his conviction!

*BUT, can we start commenting on how to conduct this properly so that anyone genuinely looking for conducting tips can learn something?

[Englishtenor2]

Stunning! We've all been doing it wrong all this time! A new era has begun in music...

[edelahaye]

There are many patterns in 9/8

333

2223

3222

2322

etc.

[TheXerhos]

@Grubbebol God, I hope not.

[singingflutelady]

OMG this is funny in a bad way

[HotForHautbois]

Lol his shirt matches the background. Maybe he's trying to camouflage so we won't see his awful conducting...

[cookwhiz]

(I hope he has another job.....)

[cookwhiz]

It would be way better if something flew in from somewhere beyond and smacked him square-on....!

[sliphorn323]

"It makes a little more sense when you see it in a book" .....um, red flag much? Conducting is visual... shouldn't it make the most sense in the visual form???

[maestroskillz]

[craetbandbass]

[kevinmacha]

I'm sorry....I just don't think there's anything right about this. "Expert"?

[Violinheaddd]

[kelcrawf1234]

[echtekuchen]

[hinsojd7494]

[DiesIrae676]

@hinsojd7494 I guess if its slow its possible..... but can you find beat 7? there is a serious flaw in his pattern....lol

[64soul1]

Ha..ha..ha.!. This is hilarious!!! 9/8 and 12/8 pattern of the century!

[rasenganzanpakuto]

HAHAHAHAHAHA xD hehehehehehe

wow, this is just.... wow

[NoGoodDeedWilliDo11]

You will never conduct out 9 or 12 beats. it's either in a 3 or 4 pattern. he has no idea how to conduct with the correct technique.

[beansthedm]

wow, thats just stupid

[RainxSiN]

A real conductor should have a feel for music from the heart. MUSIC IS NOT MATHEMATICS! for all who think that, you best go relearn the basics. take of your impudent isolation caps, and be humble.

[gtelloz]

wow! my dog conducts better. terrible!
