From my conducting master’s recital at Indiana University: Sibelius 2nd Symphony, 1st movement. A conducting recital at IU is an altogether strange event – logistical concerns prevent student conductors from using an actual hall for these recitals, so they kind of blur the boundaries between a performance and a dress rehearsal.
More videos on my YouTube channel.

I don’t actually smoke, but I do have a theory that all musicians should be photographed smoking.

Intense head shot intensely in need of some kind of hair product.

Highly goofy formal head shot.
