It's plain old 4/4 time, and the baton goes down on 1, left on 2, right on 3 and back up on 4, as usual. Look really carefully!

    That's right. If you look 90° from the left you can see another different pattern. That's why the conductor usually stands in front of the band. (But the intonation won't be better!)
