"John Watkins has used his years of experience on both sides of the baton to create a charming introduction to the art of conducting. There are not many reference books that deal with the 'how to' of directing a group of musicians. This practical guide to conducting wisely stays away from musical theory and concentrates on how to communicate with musicians from base amateur to seasoned professional.This is a must for a newly aspiring conductor, and an experienced conductor could very well use this as a refresher."

One of the best frothers I’ve owned
One of the best frothers I have owned. Powerful and holds charge for a long time. Yes! It’s rechargeable! Love the stand and that it comes apart for transport.
