Church Choir Workshop a success!
Exactly HOW do you get 200 singers on the stage of the Lawrence Chapel? Very carefully!!Thank you to the 120+ church choir singers from regional churches who attended our first ever Church Choir Workshop and to HEID MUSIC for sponsoring the event. Sessions included a master class in vocal instruction, tips on sight reading and rehearsal technique and a massed rehearsal with newVoices. The culmination: all church choir singers joined us onstage for the final concert of the season, a joyous hymn sing. Special thanks to Lawrence University instructor Karen Leigh-Post for sharing her talent and wisdom with the singers. Also thanks to newVoices singers Erica Hamilton and Assistant Conductor Dan Van Sickle for teaching the workshops (both Erica and Dan are LU grads!).
