|description = A conductor directs a musical performance by way of visible gestures. They are responsible for knowing the music in depth and conducting it appropriately.
|style = There are many titles used to describe the position an [[Artist|artist]] may hold with another [[Artist|artist]]. However, the roles and responsibilities for any particular title are relatively well defined.

* Use this [[:Category:Relationship Type|relationship type]] to describe an [[Artist|artist]] who
The titles typically used to describe this position are:
* Typically, the titles associated with this role and these responsibilities are:
:; Conductor
:; [[WikiPedia:Conducting|Conductor]]
::
:; [[WikiPedia:Director of Bands|Director of Bands]]
:; [[WikiPedia:Director of Bands|Director of Bands]]
:: A title normally used by a marching or concert band.
:: A title frequently used by the conductor of a marching or concert band.
::* [[Proposal:Teacher Position Relationship Type Proposal|Teacher Position Relationship Type]] may also be required, to fully represent this title.
::* [[Proposal:Teacher Position Relationship Type Proposal|Teacher Position Relationship Type]] may also be required, to fully represent this title.
:; [[WikiPedia:Bandmaster|Bandmaster]]
:; [[WikiPedia:Bandmaster|Bandmaster]]
:: A title normally used by a military or marching band.
:: A title used by the conductor of a military or marching band.
:; [[WikiPedia:Drum major|Drum Major]]
:: A title used by the leader of a drum and bugle corps, marching band, or pipe band. When used to reference the leader of a military band, the title describes an appointed position, not a rank.
:; [[WikiPedia:Maestro|Maestro]]
:: This indicates an [[Artist|artist]] who is held in extremely high regard. '''Caution:''' While this title ''can'' be used by a conductor, it may also be used by [[Composer Relationship Type|Composers]], [[Performer Relationship Type|performers]], [[Proposal:Music Director Position Relationship Type Proposal|music directors]], [[Proposal:Teacher Position Relationship Type Proposal|music instructors]], [[WikiPedia:Impresario|impresarios]], and even, occasionally, [[WikiPedia:Prompter|opera prompters]]. Please ensure that the position actually described is that of a conductor before using this [[:Category:Relationship Type|relationship type]].

|style = * The position (and attribute) should be documented; it must not be assumed.
* At any one time, an [[Artist|artist]] may have more than one conductor, but never more than one principal conductor.
* A conductor must be a person [[Artist|artist]].
* The [[Artist|artist]] conducted by the conductor must be a group [[Artist|artist]].
* A conductor is almost never also a [[Member Of Band Relationship Type|member]] of the group.
* Only one of the attributes should be used at the same time.
* If the [[WikiPedia:Conducting|conductor]] position specifically involves the training, leading, and/or conducting of a ''choir'' or ''chorus'', then while the action is still 'conducting', the more correct title is 'choirmaster', not 'conductor'. [[Proposal:Choirmaster Position Relationship Type Proposal|Choirmaster Position Relationship Type]] should be used to describe this position, and ''not'' this [[:Category:Relationship Type|relationship type]].
:* In some cases, both an orchestra and a choir coexist, and are conducted by the same [[Artist|artist]]. In such cases, both this [[:Category:Relationship Type|relationship type]] ''and'' [[Proposal:Choirmaster Position Relationship Type Proposal|Choirmaster Position Relationship Type]] should be used.
* This [[:Category:Relationship Type|relationship type]] describes a [[WikiPedia:Conducting|conductor]] ''position'' one [[Artist|artist]] holds with another [[Artist|artist]]. [[Conductor Relationship Type]], ''not'' this [[:Category:Relationship Type|relationship type]], should be used to describe the fact that an [[Artist|artist]] ''conducted'' on a recorded [[Track|track]] or [[Release|release]].
