Oh, a lot of conductors who come off as madmen are actually quite good at coaxing the desired results from their orchestras. Case in point: check out Mr. Ton Koopman.
@MyMusic0201 : You're right - he knows a lot more about emotion than he does technique. In something like the finale of Mahler's first, he'd have thee strokes and a coronary simultaneously.
wow...this musicians' got to have tones of courage to be this freak's playground...I thought I was bad...I think some people are not meant to be conductors....
It is pretty common for conductors to come off as mental pasients. They try to remind the musicians of the moods in the music with their facial expressions. It works, but i have to agree. Less really is more sometimes.
One time at choir rehersal, we were rolling on the floor laughing. Our conductor threw us out. lol
yes they do try to remind the musicians of the moods in the music with facial expressions but i don't seem to be able to fit his facial expressions in any sort of music, not even bad black metal.
Also, I had a shock when I first seen this recording, I thought it's the concert hall where I work :)
Lucky fellow musicians.... Hahahaha na!

How can you NOT have a heart attack when you conduct like that.....it is Rossini, for God's sake! Imagine him doing Mahler or Tchaikowsky.....
