All
our truth, or all but a
few fragments, is won by
metaphor. We don’t
grasp the meaning of a
word or concept until we
have a clear image to
connect it with. —
C.S. Lewis Â
Understanding artistry
and those
“things†that
contribute to honest and
direct musical expression
are concepts that are
both difficult to teach
and difficult for us to
understand as conductors
and teachers. Born out of
his teaching at The
Choral Institute at
Oxford each summer, James
Jordan has realized the
power of metaphor for
teaching the highest
artistic concepts
involving human
connection and deeper
listening. The home of
The Choral Institute at
Oxford is St.
Stephen’s House,
the very place that C. S.
Lewis worshipped. In this
book, Jordan adapts
Lewis’s love of
powerful and effective
metaphors. Jordan uses
metaphors as a guide to
help conductors engage
the most profound the
concepts of artistry in
music, concepts that are
often elusive to teach or
learn. These metaphors
can be effective doorways
to understand our role as
artist teacher/conductors
in new and vibrant ways.
In this book, Jordan
explores: The metaphor of
conductor as a refractive
prism connecting
musicians to conductors
within constant
communicative connection
The light-generating
source for conductors The
power of abiding
Polishing one’s
metaphorical prism for
the most powerful
refraction to others
Rethinking the
“sublime†in
music making
Understanding and
avoiding musical
“kitsch†The
power of predictive
audiation as ultimate
trust The artist’s
necessary journey into
loneliness Â

This
advanced orchestral
conducting resource
features concise
discussions of advanced
technical and
interpretive issues for
44 major orchestral works
that all conductors will
perform during their
careers. The brief
discussions that precede
each score cover the full
range of issues
encountered in real
conducting situations,
and the accompanying
online videos show
Maestro Itkin
demonstrating the
techniques for each
excerpt. All music
examples have been
faithfully reproduced
from original scores, and
Maestro Itkin has also
arranged each excerpt for
string quintet, ideal for
the conducting class
setting. With nearly a
thousand performances to
his credit, acclaimed
conductor David Itkin
shares the knowledge he
has acquired over his
decades in the
profession. The
Conductor’s Craft
is for both up-and-coming
conductors and seasoned
professionals alike,
equally beneficial for
personal study or for use
in a classroom or
ensemble setting. Â
This volume is a real
breakthrough aid for
anyone studying or
teaching conducting at
any level. Written by
David Itkin, a most
distinguished and
experienced conductor and
teacher, it concentrates
on all the vital
techniques in the
teaching of the craft.
The accompanying video
recordings also make this
volume unique. This
addition to the material
for teaching conducting
is truly revolutionary,
and the selection of
examples gets
successfully to the point
of each subject
discussed. —Samuel
Adler   Composer,
conductor, author Â
 Professor Emeritus,
The Juilliard School,
Eastman School of Music
The Conductor’s
Craft outlines a detailed
plan and method for
executing conductor
training in advanced
conducting studios.
Itkin’s book is
also an excellent
reference for any teacher
who instructs advanced
students in a collegiate
orchestral conducting
program, as well as for
up-and-coming
professionals who are
studying for a career in
the field. Perhaps most
important, an individual
conductor can manage
their own self-study with
Maestro Itkin’s
clear statements and
explanations of the
technical issues
presented with each
excerpt. This book gives
individual
conductor’s
freedom to explore
choices and alternatives
to fix tricky passages in
the provided musical
examples. I love the book
and will be using it in
my studio. —Julius

The
Interpretive Wind Band
Conductor will help
conductors make the
creative leap from simply
reading notes to
insightful musical
interpretation. In
addition to a long list
of topics on conducting
and interpretation, it
includes in-depth
analysis of six
masterworks for band, and
provides solutions for
conducting irregular and
non-metrical problems
inherent in contemporary
music. Thank you for your
brilliant interpretive
analysis of my 'La Fiesta
Mexicana.' It is obvious
that you have studied the
score very closely and
know the music even
better than I do! Great
advice and insights for
the conductor to know for
the execution and
interpretation of my
music. - H. Owen Reed,
