Summary
"This important books shares the wisdom of the most influential community children's choir directors in North America, especially those responsible for pioneering and shaping this wonderful art form. Across two volumes, author Melissa M. Mills collects and organizes interviews with 23 expert conductors. Through these conversations, Mills gleans wisdom about their training, teaching philosophy, motivations, and practice, and provides a special focus from each conductor on topics ranging from assigning vocal parts and teaching healthy tone production to planning rehearsals and developing independent musicians. Teaches of young singers will find this a broad and deep exploration of the issues that conductors must consider, leading to more purposeful instruction and increased effectiveness in the choral setting"--Back cover.
