Looking to fine tune conducting skills? Need a video to provide examples of conducting analysis to a group of students? The Flexibility or Precision Video (DVD) is the perfect option. The video features three professional conductors: Otto Klemperer, Wilhelm Furtwangler, and Arturo Toscanini. Flexibility or Precision provides footage of each conductor in action and an analysis of each respective style. Take a look at the difference perspective makes by listening to analysis from not only conductors, but also musicologists and instrumentalists. Klemperer is shown in rehearsal with the Egmont Overture as well as conducting a performance of Beethoven's 9th. Footage of Toscanini conducting Beethoven's 9th serves as a comparison. Flexibility and Precision also features Toscanini performing Beethoven's 5th. Furtwangler is featured rehearsing Schubert 8th and Brahms 4th. He is also shown performing the Meistersinger Overture.
