Conducting lessons

This is a special opportunity to study with Italian conductor Cristian Frattima.

● Those who would like to study conducting for choir, wind ensemble, or orchestra, and raise their conducting level
● Those who want to improve the musical standard of their choir or orchestra in preparation for a performance

Normally, studying conducting comes with certain challenges:

• Limited places where conducting can be studied

• Costs for hiring musicians and rehearsal spaces

However, by using video chat, you can refine your conducting skills more freely, without restrictions of time or location.

● Connect your rehearsal via video chat and receive real-time advice
● Arrange a pianist or singer and take a full-scale online conducting lesson

In addition to technique and musical interpretation, detailed instruction is also given on body usage, physical expression, and mental focus.

Lessons are conducted in Italian or English.
Due to the time difference, video calls are available after 5:00 PM Japan time.

A wide range of genres is supported, including classical music and video game music.
