New Edition of Donald Neuen’s Choral Concepts

Neuen—recipient of ACDA’s Robert Shaw Lifetime Achievement Award, former Director of Choral Activities at Eastman and UCLA, and assistant to Robert Shaw—brings nearly 70 years of experience to this invaluable text. 

In the field of choral conducting and pedagogy, there is no other book to rival the depth and breadth of Donald Neuen’s Choral Concepts… which I believe to be the finest of its kind in the English language.
