What Are The Most Important?

What are the most important things you want your choirs to end this school year with?

Got the list? If you’re like me, there are at least a dozen major goals on it.

You have to shorten it. Make it three. You’ll get more done, but you can only guarantee maybe three.

What must you do?

Here’s mine:

  1. Belonging. They should feel like they belong to each other.
  2. Musicality. Not musicianship, necessarily, but they should understand how to make music feel alive.
  3. Performing. Learn how to dance with the nerves of walking on stage, and deliver the performances they are capable of performing.

Everything else I want to do is secondary to any of those three.
