“…The assessment was carried out with the Orchestral Conducting Gestural Competencies Scale (OCGCS) (Lorenzo de Reizabal & Benito, 2018) of seven general dimensions and 27 indicators associated with a Likert scale: 1 = never, 2 = rarely, 3 = sometimes, 4 = quite often, 5 = always (Appendix 3). This scale has a high reliability (McDonald’s Omega = .96, composite reliability > .83), validity (VME > .50) and invariance with respect to the variables of type of judge and sex of the observer and the observed.…”

“…Autonomous use of the left arm is also emphasized, as is interruption of movement and cuts, as well as general body attitude and facial expressiveness (including eye contact), and the plasticity of gesture according to the sound to be transmitted. All these technical gestures have been approached by different authors and researchers from different points of view (see Bodnar, 2013; Bonshor, 2017; Chaffin, 2011; Colson, 2012; Green, 1987; Johnson, Fredrickson, Achey, & Gentry, 2003; Lorenzo de Reizabal & Benito, 2018; Mathers, 2009; Silvey, 2013; Silvey & Major, 2014).…”

Self-observation has proven to be a powerful medium for personal and professional growth and development. This research makes use of self-observation through video to determine the latent structure that underlies the gestures to be learned and mastered by orchestra conducting students. Exploratory Factorial Analysis (EFA) techniques have been applied to the assessments of the performances of the orchestra conducting students who participated in the experimental group of this study ( N = 13, males: 38.5%, females: 61.5%) before and after a self-observation experience. The results show a better integration of the gestures performed, and an improvement in the awareness of gestural details that go unnoticed if they are not visualized from outside; an improvement in gestural learning and in the self-regulation of learning; gestural maturation and a more selective focus on the gestures that must be corrected, as well as propitiating a vision of the body as a whole.
