Drawing from his five decades of success as a conductor and educator in the choral field, Will Kesling has compiled a comprehensive choral methods resource that addresses every necessary fundamental for achieving artistry in the choral art. This resource covers building a healthy and beautiful choral sound, dealing with vocal issues, selecting repertoire, understanding musical periods and composers, and planning and running rehearsals. It also explores a discussion of performing sacred music in secular education settings, techniques for performing choral-orchestral works, choral versus orchestral conducting, and how to become a true maestro. A valuable read for emerging and seasoned conductors alike.
