The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It has been defined as "the art of directing the simultaneous performance of several players or singers by the use of gesture".
- The primary duties of the conductor are to interpret the score in a way that reflects the specific indications in that score, set the tempo, ensure correct entries by ensemble members, and "shape" the phrasing where appropriate.
- Conductors communicate with their musicians primarily through hand gestures, usually with the aid of a baton, and may use other gestures or signals such as facial expression and eye contact.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Conducting article was read about 71,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 75 and blocks with 51: each hit it takes is cut by 20 %.
