How to Conduct an Orchestra

We've all seen a conductor standing in front of an orchestra wielding a baton. All the baton waving might look random to the untrained eye, but there is meaning in every gesture. Gustavo Dudamel, the conductor of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, shows us how he guides the musicians using his body and eye contact.

This Swiss Restaurant Is Built Into the Side of a Mountain

This restaurant in Weissbad, Switzerland, is remote, to say the least. Perched on the side of a mountain in the Swiss Alps, it's at an elevation of about 5,000 feet above ground level. Even if you take a cable car, you've got to hike steep terrain at least part of the way. That said, it's a beautiful journey that takes you through a 40,000-year-old cave and by a chapel carved right into the mountain. And you're following in the footsteps of hungry hikers who have been trekking to this restaurant for 173 years.

This Great Big Story was made possible by Swiss International Air Lines.
