Sibelius "Andante Festivo"

This video shows the culmination of 1 day of rehearsals with the Korea International School Middle School Honor’s Orchestra that I conducted in 2015. The piece is the “Andante Festivo” by Jean Sibelius. Though the title states “Andante,” research showed that Sibelius preferred a tempo closer to “Grave” for this piece - hence the slower tempo.
