Mixed Choir, Corona Del Sol’s “Encore” (a 9th grade women’s choir), and the NAU Shrine of the Ages Concert Choir. Attendees also experimented with Harter handbells and choirchimes in Doug Benton’s session “Hands-On-Handbells: How Do You Do That?” A huge success for the NAU student chapter of ACDA, this early autumn event expanded rehearsal techniques of current and future teachers. “Choral music is all about people and connection. Our choirs are the convocation of our students, and ACDA is the gathering of our music educators,” says Zach Moore, President of the NAU student chapter of ACDA. The Symposium was planned and executed by the officers and committees of the student chapter. The student chapter is thankful for the contributions and support of their advisors, Dr. Edith Copley and Dr. Ryan Holder. This event would not have been possible without the assistance of AzACDA, the Western Division, and National ACDA.
