Abstract

Having the musical concert as the main theme for this research, we will focus on understanding which elements the universe of musical artistic direction requires, both to initiate, to develop and finalize a musical work. Factors such as age, musical training, logistical conditions, target audience, and stages for performances are some of the variables involved in the artistic direction of an orchestra. At the end of the research, we aim to systematize artistic directing techniques, organize a collection of works related to the chosen focus, and propose three concert programs for a string orchestra that are coherents with the discussions presented
