The Choral Challenge

The Choral Challenge is a handbook of solutions for common and not-so-common problems facing choral conductors at all experience levels. From "A" for agility to "Y" for yawning, Michael Kemp pours a lifetime of experience living and working in the choral world into this truly remarkable and practical book. He starts with a myriad of quick-fix solutions to common "choral challenges" and then provides in-depth explanations for choir directors who need more. He follows with sections on planning and preparation (including 62 warm-up exercises) as well as an enlightening discussion on motivating and recruiting choir members. The result is a comprehensive, incredibly useful and well-organized resource!
