In this episode of To North Bay With Love, North Bay Symphony Orchestra conductor Josh Wood shares his journey into music and gives a behind the scenes look at what it really takes to lead an orchestra.

Josh breaks down what a conductor is actually doing on stage, from keeping time and cueing musicians to shaping the volume, tempo, style, and overall interpretation of a piece.

He also talks about the preparation that happens before a performance and why no two performances are ever exactly the same.
