Talkbacks, pre-concert circles, roses, and “non-talent-talent shows,”  - just a few of the awesome ideas from this episode as we explore ways to build community, especially for our LGBTQIA+ singers. 

Meet Dr. Raul Dominguez, a return guest to the podcast, but this time we talk about his work with GALA Choruses, their choral response to Club Q, and ultimately ways to create community and support our LGBTQIA+ singers and friends.
