The Conductor (Thin White Duke Remix)

Confident with your back to the audience

Tremolo strings begin with your gesturing wrist

Start the orchestra slow with an elegant air

Then a circular sweep crescendoing swell

Leo Slatkin, Dohnanyi, Previne, Depaur

[Chorus]

Your arms are calling out

They wave like a swarm of sound

You pull the sound from scores of notes

You step the stage and take control

You're conducting Verése in a moment of silence

Your body directs a pulse of wind

Von Karjan, Hampton, Menuhin, Levine

[Chorus: x2]

"Control"
