Abstract
Conceived by Morris as a theoretical introduction as well as a practical guide for conductors, composers, instrumentalists and music educators, The Art of Conduction – A Conduction® Workbook provides a detailed elucidation, through drawings and explanations, of each sign and gesture Morris developed for his “vocabulary of communication” in ensemble music making. The volume, published posthumously, presents Morris’s own reflections about Conduction as a way of establishing common ground between notation and improvised music, as well as a complete Conduction® chronology and discography.
