    Classically Training: What does the arm waving mean?

    Conductors have an important job. They start the music, stop the music, set the tempo, and help shape the sound of a piece. And they do all of this with their arms!

This week, our host sits down with conductor Hannah Schendel to help demystify the movement that creates our music. Related Items Episode 1: What is classical music?
