The contestants face a week of grueling tests as they vie to show the demanding judges who is the most talented young conductor. Three teams film the contestants throughout the competition, capturing their nerves, their joys and disappointments, and their thoughts on this difficult and largely overlooked profession. To the sound of a stunning repertoire, viewers discover the passion that these young maestros harbour for music, as well as the challenges they must face to become "the next great talent".
