Choral ensembles presumably had conductors long before the orchestra developed. In the early orchestra performances, time was kept by someone in the group, usually the concertmaster, who played as well as kept the players together. As orchestral compositions and operas became more complex, it was less practical for someone who was playing also to lead the ensemble. No one knows for sure who the first person was to stand in front and direct without actually taking an instrumental role, but it happened some time in the mid to late classical period.
