“A conductor is a leader, performer, and the one who maintains the music in balance. It is one of the most demanding positions in the music industry. We must nurture their talents since it is one-of-a-kind talent.”
My name is James Philippe C. De Torres, and I am pursuing a Bachelor of Music in Performance, Major in Orchestral Conducting. I'm in my third year at the University of Santo Tomas. What I'm doing now is prepping for my upcoming junior recital in May. This would be my very first conducting recital. I also have a lot of experience producing songs, my sister is a singer, and I'm the one that records her voice and arranges some instrumentals for her songs. I also mixed and mastered several audios from our choir, as well as some from my orchestral examinations.
My business is all about musicians, especially aspiring conductors who wish to develop their conducting talents and learn new ones. I'm interested in doing this because there are only a few expert orchestral conducting workshops in the Philippines. I wish to broated and foster Filipino musicality, since I know Filipinos are excellent musicians.
