Written by Frederick William Wodell, a prominent choral conductor and educator of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, this book covers all aspects of choral conducting, from selecting repertoire to rehearsing and performing with a choir.The book begins with an overview of the history of choral music and the role of the conductor in leading a choir. Wodell then delves into the practical aspects of organizing and managing a choir, including recruiting singers, selecting music, and scheduling rehearsals. He also provides detailed guidance on the finer points of choral conducting, such as tempo, dynamics, and expression.Throughout the book, Wodell emphasizes the importance of proper vocal technique and the development of a strong, unified sound among choir members. He also offers advice on working with soloists and instrumentalists, as well as tips for conducting large-scale choral works such as oratorios and cantatas.Choir and Chorus Conducting is a valuable resource for anyone interested in choral conducting, from novice choir directors to experienced professionals. Its practical advice and historical context make it a fascinating read for anyone with an interest in the history and development of choral music.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
