About this book
Relevance in the Choral Art is a collection of essays from leading practitioners in the choral field that challenges musicians to reflect on the role choral music plays in today's culture and what can be done to keep it relevant. Now more than ever we must face the challenge of the relevancy of choral music in our culture, for artistic directors and their role within choral organizations, for members of choral organizations, and for the community that choral music education and performance serves. Tim Sharp along with ten contributing authors explore the idea of relevance and what it means to the choral community, offering wisdom and guidance on a range of topics, including: programming; empowering women, minorities, and other underrepresented groups; working with non-traditional groups (such as those with cognitive or physical differences or those who are incarcerated); youth leadership; and how to achieve relevance. This book provides valuable insights based on research, decades of experience, and practical applications for those looking to revive and grow the relevancy of their work in choral music.
