Choral Catalogue

Matthew Van Dyke

Choral Catalogue is a space for choral directors to find exemplary, programmable choral repertoire while learning more about the conception behind those pieces as well as teaching tips and strategies from composers and choral directors in the field of Choral Music. Each episode will focus on one piece of choral repertoire that works well for high school and / or choral ensembles.

Categories: Music

Listen to the last episode:

In this episode, you'll hear from J. Reese Norris, composer of "Rise Above" - available for SA through MusicSpoke.

Reese and I discuss the conception of the piece, the impact of Joan of Arc, the common vocalisms of the adolescent treble singer, the part of this piece that singers refer to as "getting crunk up again", and the non usual banter.

Thank you for listening and I hope you check out "Rise Above" and Reese's entire choral music catalogue!
