On Being in the Choir

Why does singing in a choir have such an impact on people that they cherish those moments for the rest of their lives? Our show today explores a few of the many stories people have shared with us about the importance of being in a choir. Today’s guest is M. Nicole Davis, an Assistant Professor of Choral Conducting and Choral Music Education at the University of Arizona. She’s an ideal person to speak to the meaning of being in a choir, because she intentionally cultivates connection and community in her choirs. Musical Memories by Thomas Gregg, Samantha Jackson, and Robert Groves lead our discussion.
