What, exactly, do the conductors of symphony orchestra concerts do.
In addition to commencing and ending the concert, how do the conductors motions and gestures change how the musicians are playing during the concert from however the musicians would be playing in the absence of those motions and gestures?
How would the same classical piece played by the same musicians in the same concert hall at the same time sound different when conducted by different conductors?
Once the concert is commenced by the conductor could the musicians continue playing on their own without a conductor on the stage?
