As we get closer to the start of the school year, I see more and more questions from choir directors about finding repertoire to fit a specific theme.  They're frustrated, stressed out and at their wit's end, trying to find something that fits their concert theme.  Here's the answer (possible unpopular opinion):

You don’t need a concert theme!

In today’s episode of the podcast, I discuss seven reasons why you should ditch your concert theme this fall, save yourself some time and frustration, and focus on what really matters when selecting repertoire for your concert.

If you’d like to learn more about my process for selecting choir repertoire, I teach a course inside of our Choir Director Corner Community Membership called “Finding and Selecting Repertoire for the Busy Choir Director”. There are tons of repertoire ideas and PDF’s to help you, including Recommended Repertoire Lists. The course is just one of dozens of resources in the membership. You can find out more information on the membership over at:
