"His
teachings are so comprehensive
and yet so fundamental
that they embrace all
possible conducting styles" --
Seiji Ozawa
An
introduction to the
Saito
Conducting Method in
an AV
enhanced PDF
I created
this Adobe portable document
file (PDF) as an introduction
and companion to the English
edition of the textbook. The
document shows and explains
the method's basic gestures
using animations and QuickTime
movies. The first Saito
conducting study is
demonstrated in sound,
notation and QuickTime movies.
The document includes a
complete Saito glossary
together with a comprehensive
explanation of Saito's unique
gesture diagrams, a history of
the method and an outline of
study materials used at the
Toho Gakuen School of Music,
Tokyo. The PDF presents the
art of conducting in a
dynamic, interactive way. The
files work on Macintosh and
Windows operating systems. The
PDF and associated files are
available free of charge on
request.
