BBC Maestro Alex James "Dies Irae" Verdi

Why did I get minuses? I was positive about everything. I am not really a snob. In fact, that was a stupid thing to say that.

You must have read me all wrong.

tempo tempo! please, you could hear the musicans struggling to slow it down to a more humane speed

Conducting without much training is very difficult, what the most of you think! Bravo to Alex that he liked the music ,learned the words and was not ashamed to conduct in front of big audience.

@Aleksiroea it's not conducting.

I am a snob. I searched for a greater version of this. Karajan etc but I I enjoyed this more than any.

As a Catholic I would love this at my funeral Don't have Alex, don't have the orchestra and I don't have the choir. I wonderful if Clive Anderson would turn up,

[MsRadley]

All wrong but so perfectly right as well. The timing is completely out but you can't deny the passion

[missgreeneyes56]

I know it was all wrong but it was lovely. I have so enjoyed this series and now know that an armchair conductor is like someone who joins an orchestra without being able to play an instrument.

Can't be easy doing this when your partner is having a child.

Ohhh that was so close to being a disaster at the beginning, but the overall sound was good and very dramatic.
