The New York Philharmonic's conductor Alan Gilbert gave a masterclass with a difference when characters from Sesame Street showed up at The Lincoln Centre to watch a rehearsal.

As you can see from the video, Gilbert and some students from the Juilliard School walked Murray Monster through a slowed-down version of Mozart's Eine Kleine Nachtmusik to show exactly what a conductor does.
