A '''conductor''' is a person who directs the performance of a [[composer]]'s [[incidental music|score]]. In this pursuit, they will be most concerned with determining when individual instruments play their parts of the music. Often, but not always, the conductor will also be the [[orchestrator]] of the [[orchestra]]. | A '''conductor''' is a person who directs the performance of a [[composer]]'s [[incidental music|score]].

[[Marcus Dods]] was the only conductor so credited on the 1963 version of ''[[Doctor Who]]'', for his work on ''[[The Aztecs (TV story)|The Aztecs]]''. Nonetheless, some others received the specific credit of "Incidental music composed and conducted by": [[Norman Kay]] on ''[[The Sensorites (TV story)|The Sensorites]]'', [[Raymond Jones]] on ''[[The Romans (TV story)|The Romans]]'', and [[Carey Blyton]] on ''[[Doctor Who and the Silurians (TV story)|Doctor Who and the Silurians]]''. | |||
In [[BBC Wales]] ''Doctor Who'', conductors were at first only credited on special occasion, as with ''[[The End of Time (TV story)|The End of Time]]''. During the [[Steven Moffat|Moffat]] and [[Chris Chibnall|Chibnall]] eras, however, the conductor began to be credited on a more regular basis. {{as of|2019|1}}, the only individuals credited as conductors for the BBC Wales programme were [[Jeremy Holland-Smith]], [[Ben Foster]], [[David Temple]], [[Alastair King]] and [[Alec Roberts (orchestrator)|Alec Roberts]]. Most were commonly credited for "Music conducted and orchestrated by [them]". | |||
