Who is the best conductor? A special competition on the art of conducting

A special look into a week-long Antonio Pedrotti International Conducting Competition, nerve-wracking competition in which about 130 young people from all over the world, take part and of which one is to be crowned best conductor by an international jury led by Maestro Gustav Kuhn.

The beady-eyed jury follows every participant’s gesture and movement, who panics about blackouts, or a poorly rehearsed piece of music. Interviews are intercut with footage of the competition. The calm, soothing sounds of the classical compositions contrast more and more starkly with the rising tensions in the run-up to the final.
