NextDirection Choral Leadership Conference

Were you that high school student who loved choir, who was able to draw others around you during break, but who didn’t know that choir could possibly be a career for you? The NextDirection event is for those very students, and is aimed at opening up the world of choral education for them. Built on a program developed and honed by the Wisconsin Choral Directors Association, 2018 was the first year the program was offered to students across the country.

There will be no program events in 2021.

Inspiring Choral Leadership – National Program
July 11-15, 2022, University of Wisconsin – Eau Claire
Headline conductor: Jefferson Johnson, University of Kentucky
Artistic and programmatic leadership for NextDirection comes from Wisconsin Choral Directors Association.
