The American Choral Director’s Association North Central Division Conference at the Minneapolis Hilton, March 3-6, 2010. A Community That Sings! …will be the theme as choral directors from across the upper Midwest gather together. Both a culminating event and a kickoff to an ongoing effort to bringing song back to our society, the convention will feature national and international leaders in the community singing movement. Headlining the conference will be Alice Parker…the long-time voice for melody in America. A second keynote will be presented by Britain’s National Ambassador for Singing, Howard Goodall. The initial immersion day will conclude with two dynamic events…first, a public “SING” where nine newly arranged folksongs by nationally recognized composers will be unveiled. Second, the evening will wrap up with a presentation and performance by Maarja Soone and the Girls Choir of the Old Town Musichouse from Tallinn, Estonia. Convention goers will hear how the power of song in Estonia helped the country achieve independence from the former Soviet Union. Find more info here: http://www.ncacda.org/index2.htm
