Book Description
While there are plenty of books about the musical techniques of choir directing, there are precious few that deal with the organizational nuts-and-bolts and the people skills required for a smoothly functioning music program. Ellis Dillard Thompson, a veteran choir director and music educator, shares his tried and proven methods for getting choir members excited. He focuses on the role of a church musician as a spiritual leader, and stresses that a truly successful music program is based on spiritual values that uplift, inspire, and motivate participants. This outstanding guide is designed for anyone participating in music ministry: choir directors, choir members, organists, pastors, music committee members, and worship committee members.
