Expressive Conducting is an extensive and technologically unique resource . . | |
 | Learn how to conduct with EC3, the first multimedia resource for conducting. Even without the benefit of enrolling in a university, see how an experienced and successful conductor communicates with his ensemble...read the text and notation, but most importantly, watch the incredibly rich collection of video which demonstrates skills, syntax, studies and live conducting of scores. If you are a professor of conducting and have been searching for the next generation tool to help you accomplish more in less time, EC3 provides for projection of all of its assets in your smart classroom....and your students can explore or review your presentation on their own laptops. If your class is set up for 1:1 computing (each student with his/her own laptop), then you can ask them to open a score or instrumental part, watch a video demonstration, refer to a paragraph in the text, search the text for a term or technique--all within seconds and all without paper. So....if you have been dreaming about a paperless conducting classroom, EC3 makes the dream a reality. Want to print the score? Fine...all scores and parts are easily printed. Want to print a page from the text to slip into your notebook? Fine....an entire 350 page textbook in PDF format is printable (and is searchable...and has hundreds of links). --Doc Wiens |
Are you telling me I can study conducting while I commute on the Metra? You mean I can watch video demonstrations at two in the morning when the library and labs are closed? Are you serious....that I can hop around, browse through hundreds of topics in print, video, animations and not be forced to learn the material serially, in a straight line from start to finish? Wow, I can get the instructor to repeat his demonstration thirteen times without him getting frustrated? OK, I tried it on my Windows laptop and it worked....but my buddies have Macs, some with Tiger and a few with Leopard, and wow, with Hot Corners turned on, you can really take advantage of the multi-screen assets. I've really had it with conducting texts that are limited to words, pictures and printed music. Why not have it all.....the audio, video, animations, plus all the printable text and music? But wait, this has got to cost an arm and a leg, right? But my buddies bought the DVD rom and the Activation Code for less than $100, and now I'm thinkin' ......... --Conducting Student | |
