This professional development workshop, designed for conductors of choirs at all levels, gives special emphasis to the important role non-verbal skills can play in rehearsal and performance.

• Explore movement activities designed to improve intonation, timbre, rhythmic accuracy and to expand dynamic range.
• Examine the effect of the conductor’s posture and gesture on vocal production and choral tone.
• Experience how effective pacing and affirmative instruction improves both focus and retention in the choral rehearsal.
• Enhance practical conducting skills during daily master classes.
• Enjoy daily reading sessions from a large packet of octavos personally selected by Rod Eichenberger.
• Academic Credit: Central Washington University will be offering three (3) Graduate credits or 33 Clock Hours for this week-long workshop. More information to come as we get closer to the workshop date.
