Welcome to the 61st Annual TCDA Convention!

On behalf of the TCDA Board of Directors, I want to sincerely thank you for making TCDA a part of your summer. I enjoy seeing exchanges and collaborations between choir directors on social media. But just like in life, nothing beats face to face interactions, does it?

Imagine directing a choir on Facebook! Seeing friends and colleagues is one of the things I look forward to the most. It revives my soul! I know you’ll have many opportunities to restore and reinvigorate yourself for the coming year.

This board has worked diligently since last Fall to bring you a wonderful offering of convention workshops, honor choirs, concerts, worship services, and reading sessions. Enjoy!

We’ve packed a lot of activities into these three days in our fancy, new convention center facilities! (Did you pack your pedometer?) In addition, I would like to strongly encourage you to spend time in the exhibit hall. We have the best vendors in the world, and without their attendance and investment, we would have a very different convention. They have lots to offer, so please make time to see them.

But let’s not forget about social media altogether! Be sure to include us in your TCDA journey. Post on our TCDA Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter. #iamtcda Have a great time in San Antonio and have a wonderful choir year!

Dr. Cari Earnhart, clinician East meets West as we explore performance practice and the accessibility of Arabic Choral music. In order for Western conductors to effectively teach, conduct, or perform these new works, it is important for them to develop a basic understanding of traditional Arabic musical styles and pronunciation of the language, thereby making Arabic choral music more accessible and enabling it to become a part of the larger world’s musical vocabulary. This presentation serves as an introductory resource for non-Arab choral conductors concerning key elements related to performing Arabic choral music and provides a context for how these elements relate to this evolving choral genre.

This Curriculum from “Orchestra Expressions Book 1 and 2” features a wide variety of music from many cultures, styles and time periods, enabling musical visits to six continents. From the very first lessons, learning to play is also tied in with the study of great masterpieces of music (“Beethoven 9”, “Brandenburg 5”, “Firebird”, “Academic Festival Overture”, etc.) their composers, other arts relating to time and style periods, and threaded with corresponding historical events, scientific discovery and inventions. First steps in music theory, original composition and improvisation are also included. Recorded accompaniments feature authentic performance practice and actual traditional instruments from many cultures (dombak, oud, sitar, tabla, koto, didgeridoo, jaws harp, steel pans, mandolin and many others) as well as easy versions of symphonic masterpieces. There are musical examples celebrating Christmas, Hanukkah, Ramadan and Kwanzaa. Enjoy the tour!

We’ve all had the student who won’t stay seated, won’t stay quiet, won’t stay focused during choir rehearsal.

Sometimes these students are just being silly. Other times, a look into a student’s file will reveal stacks of paperwork: BIP, IEP, ADD, ADHD, autism, behavior modifications, emotionally disturbed, dyslexia, the list goes on. It can be difficult to know how to respond to students when they act out or lose focus. Hank will offer tips and strategies for effectively keeping your students engaged in choir rehearsal, with special consideration for attention seekers and those with disabilities.
