Wittry, Diane - Beyond the Baton

Beyond the Baton presents a view of the music director's job from the inside - starting at the moment students decide they want to be conductors, through their first jobs, to being successful artistic leaders within their communities. Written with clarity and passion, this book covers the practical ground that music schools neglect. It is an essential resource for helping conductors think about their duties both on and off the podium.
