Choral Conducting
A Life of Building
Dale Warland. A handbook
for aspiring choral conductors
at any stage of their career,
this book is written by one of

conductors and articulates his
best-practice advice. Divided into

instrument, with intention and
care. Finally, it stresses the
importance of repertoire and
programming as the most
important aspects of the choral

values that every conductor

own life of building within choral
music.
