  • What does that mean? "Body language" it was an undergraduate course early in the morning... and I was nervous as hell... first time conducting in front of one of the best collegiate conductors. Don't hate! :)

  • Your beat is in some cases UNCLEAR. I agree with MaestroVNG...also your wrist is intense...it is impossible to conduct like this...WORK,WORK,WORK!!

  • Thanks for the advise... this was back in August when I first started... I've improved quite a bit.

  • This arrangement is so beautiful, who is it composed or arranged by? You got some excellent voices there so you can do a lot with them dynamically. Job well done! Another thing that helps is an intimate connection with the text. The text is a belief, so you can use "This Little Light of mine" as word painting...think of the constant light or the behaviour of light and bring that texture through the voices.

  • @alexfsu no way,are you serious? collegiate conductors and you a first-timer, I would be nervous too..good for you! just emphasize a bit more on your conducting :)

  • I love unison arrangements! Especially with a choir of this level (haha even though it's a conducting class).

  • The song is "This Little Light of Mine" by Ken Berg--unison voicing with optional cello part.

  • I believe this is a spiritual but this arrangement, I believe, is by Moses Hogan.

  • I miss being in choir

  • good song, good class. I could only recomend to make the "rebound" of the first beat... that makes it much better.

  • Does anyone have the Girl in Green's phone number? Would love to 'give it' to her proper! Thanx!

  • What song is this? It is a beautiful song!
