Abstract

Considering the subjectivity of the interpersonal character inherent to conducting activity, as well as its indirect relationship with the effective sound production, the study of conducting procedures constitutes one of the most relevant challenges in the musical performance science. In view of the studies’ concentration towards gesture technique, this paper proposes to focus specifically on the relationship conductor-work issues, which show themselves capable of revealing, in a more evident way, the performative dimension of the conductor as interpreter.
