I am passionate about sharing my knowledge and experience with the next generation of orchestra conductors. Below you will find various ways I contribute to teaching orchestral conducting at all levels.
I am thrilled to join the Shepherd School of Music faculty as Distinguished Resident Director of Orchestras and Professor of Conducting. If you are interested in pursuing graduate studies in orchestral conducting for the 2025-26 academic year or learning about the program, please contact Geoffrey Scott (Assistant Dean of Student Affairs and Enrollment Management) at geoffrey.scott@rice.edu.
We are currently working on creating the undergraduate studies in orchestral conducting. More information coming soon.

Private lessons and coaching
I am able to give private lessons and coaching to a limited amount of aspiring conductors through my private studio. Whether you are the conductor of a youth or community orchestra, a student, or are looking to take the next step in your career, we can work in person or online (Zoom or FaceTime). To request a free online appointment to discuss your passion, goals, plans, and how I can be of help, please email me at miguel@miguelharth-bedoya.com
