3 Biggest Mistakes at Conducting Competitions and Workshops

Based on my experiences teaching conducting workshops and participating in competitions, the three biggest mistakes are:

1. Worrying so much about the ensemble problems when you are the one causing the problems.

2. Only concerned about your conducting, your vision of the music and fail to connect with musicians. 

3. Thinking that it’s only about conducting - how about your leadership styles, interpersonal skills, and the way you present yourself?
