Music Expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent.
Victor Hugo (1802-1885)

Music Missions: reaching out to our youth through their voices

Music Missions: reaching out to our youth through their voices

As an aspiring choir director, I am always on the lookout for new information to assist me in my "learning to teach" process. This blog will have information geared towards young choral directors, everything from program assistance to choral sound recordings to soloist techniques! Anything supplementary for the classroom and the kids. I hope you find it useful!

Choral Conducting Literature

http://www.singers.com/choral/conducting/

Literature for the continued advancement of studies is imperative! This is a fantastic website for resources on choral conducting from the podium as well as from the education classroom. Use these texts to grow and learn from, constantly honing technique and method to best meet the needs of your students. Texts on leadership and communication are just as important, if not more, as information on conducting technique. Here you will find information from some of the best conducting instructors listed down the page. Many of these texts you will find in conducting curriculum in programs around the country, so many are instructional while some lean more in the area of linguistic and semantics challenges when addressing your choir. A well-organized and resourceful site that I highly recommend!
