Choral Director's Toolbox: Mentors Ep 32

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 builds 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.
