Conducting Session at the NMEA conference for music teachers

Educator as Maestro

In this conducting masterclass, you will have the opportunity to watch and learn along with your peers as they conduct the Omaha Symphony with Maestro Serena Reuten. The session will focus on conducting technique, communication skills, and musicianship – in a real-life laboratory setting with a professional orchestra. Using repertoire from participating teachers’ classrooms, this session aims to support every educator as a maestro.
