Mr. Davis will meet with the conductor to discuss the targeted objectives for the group or student. The director should send over a brief description of his observations and the music being played so Mr. Davis will have an idea of what he will be working with. The student or ensemble will perform the entire piece, then Benny Davis will give recommendations on the musicians’ styles and techniques and also how to improve their skills.
