Today on TAP, I’m chatting about one of the areas that I LOVE, but one that I’m still learning about and growing in myself—the children’s choir. In this series of episodes, all about back to basics, I think it’s important to share those things that are (or once were!) outside of my comfort zone. Conducting a choir? It used to be one of them. But I realize now, several years and choirs later, that leading a choir is still teaching music. And THAT, I was called to do.

On today’s part one of two episodes, I’m sharing all I’ve learned about choosing repertoire, structuring rehearsals, and planning performances. And, spoiler alert, it’s a lot of the same mindset stuff I talk about each and every episode: keeping it purposeful, sequential and joyful.
