Why doesn’t the conductor face the audience? 1As the only person with his back to the audience, the conductor is a figure who is bathed in the spotlight, but his complex work requires a high degree of musical skills, as well as an ability to extract what he desires out of the group of artists he leads—his orchestra.2 A person may become a conductor without graduating from the conducting department of a music school or studying in any kind of conductor’s training program. However, becoming the conductor of a famous orchestra requires a great deal more than what is needed merely to join an orchestra.3These natur ally examine a conductor’s technique and musical interpretation when he conducts an orchestra through a prepared piece of music, but they also involve a sight-reading element. 4The conductor then has to sit in a room and memorize the piece before coming out and leading the orchestra through the piece by memory. Not only does the conductor have to make his arm and hand motion properly, and signal all the entrances of each instrument, he has to point out intentional mistakes made by the orchestra members on the spot.The least capabilities a conductor must have are: The ability to memorize an entire score. A good ear for distinguishing correct notes among the music of the entire orchestra. 5Of the conductors that meet these requirements, those with better musical insight and a higher level of charisma(魅力) will succeed.A. The need for a common musical standard becomes necessary.B. The ability to lead a group of professional musicians.C. There are many conducting competitions.D. For this, the score of music is given to the conductor on site.E. This is how the role of the conductor came to be established.F. The role of the conductor is in fact not well understood.G. There are no examinations for becoming a conductor.【文章大意】本文主要介绍了乐队的指挥总是背对着观众, 而不面向观众的原因, 以及成为一名乐队指挥需要哪些方面的能力等。
