This important resource is the culmination of a lifelong dream of author Melissa M. Mills to share the wisdom of many of the most influential community children's choir directors in North America. In two volumes, Mills collects and organizes interviews with 23 expert conductors. Through their conversations, Mills gleans wisdom about their training, teaching philosophy, motivations, and practice, and provides a special focus from each conductor on topics ranging from assigning vocal parts and teaching healthy tone production to planning rehearsals and developing independent musicians. Teachers of young singers will find a broad and deep exploration of the issues that conductors must consider, leading to more purposeful instruction and increased effectiveness in the choral setting. Volume 1 contributors include: Betty Bertaux, Emily Ellsworth, Christy Elsner, Janet Galvan, Helen Kemp, Janeal Krehbiel, Henry Leck, Doreen Rao, Barbara M. Tagg, and Anne Tomlinson. Volume 2 contributors include: Jean Bartle, Jerome Wright, Joan Gregoryk, Marguerite McCormick, Mary Goetze, Ralph Woodward, Rebecca Rottsolk, Roberta Jackson and Debra Burgess, Robyn Lana, Susan Knight, and Timothy Sharp.
