Hello! Aspiring conductor here, still yet to enter grad school. I have two questions, if that's alright:
1) If you could send words of advice to your younger self on how to be successful doing this as a career, what would you say?
2) When you are preparing to conduct a new piece, whether that be established repertoire that you haven't yet learned, or a new modern compositions, what is your general score study process? What do you prioritize before the first rehearsal, and what (if anything) do you allow yourself to pick up or work out as you go?
