The Role of Repertoire in Building a Quality Children's Choir: A Series of Workshops

Special Guest Clinician: Marie Stultz

What song to sing...always a dilemma for the children's choir director. Marie Stultz will help us see that, from Handel to Rutter, fine singing can occur through the selection of the right score. Marie will help us learn that we do not have to be afraid to ask more of our young singers. The workshop will include: flexibility exercises, breathing exercises, effective warm-ups, reading sessions, conducting techniques, and more.
