The first webumentary in the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra series that is being used to introduce Marin Alsop, the new music director who is the first female music director of a major American symphony orchestra, features comments from Alsop interpersed with footage of her conducting the orchestra. The video shows Alsop in front of a white backdrop, with the conducting scenes shot in black and white. The white limbo was used to make Alsop stand out, with the black-and-white concert footage contrasting with the white limbo and providing poetic shots of the beautiful instruments.
