We're back with a new episode of our video series «The art of conducting». This time we sat down with Ernst Van Tiel, who talked to us what conducting live music to a movie during a ciné-concert is about. He discussed the challenges of synchronization, the differences between conducting to a film and the symphonic repertoire, the liberties & limits and much more! Check out the latest episode and discover more about the art of conducting films!
