Synopsis

For courses in Choral Conducting, Choral Methods and Techniques, and Secondary School Choral Music.

America's best selling text on Choral Conducting was initially based upon actual research, i.e., a survey of numerous choral conductors to identify specific problems that they currently encountered and the extent to which they felt they were prepared in undergraduate school to deal with these problems. Since the first edition, however the book has been expanded considerably, as the author focused upon and included new and pertinent matters/issues facing the choral music profession.
