The Choral Director’s Toolbox This Week

August 12, 2025 by wbakerfestivalsingers-org 1 Comment

Enjoy all 32 episodes of The Choral Director’s Toolbox for free at https://www.ChoralFoundation.org/toolbox

In episode 32 of The Choral Director’s Toolbox, host Dr. William Baker reflects on the invaluable role of Mentors in shaping a conductor’s career, sharing personal stories of wisdom passed down and lessons learned the hard way from seasoned colleagues.  He encourages today’s young choral leaders to seek guidance from those “who have been over the mountain a few times” and to embrace the blend of tradition and innovation that brings true artistry.  This week’s listener question offers strategies for launching a choir season on the right note.  Today’s inspiration is Brahms’ lively Tafellied, performed by the Leipzig Radio Chorus,  Join us for a heartfelt episode on learning, leading, and lifting each other up in the choral profession.
