Sacred Music Skills IV

2.0 credits

This class focuses on the training of young vocal and instrumental musicians through early musical training and the creation of opportunities for their involvement in the musical life of the church. Choral and handbell repertoire will be explored, and conducting techniques specific to younger participants will be learned. In addition to assigned special projects, each student will participate through occasional supervised conducting of children’s and handbell choirs at a local church. Also included are sessions on the administration of a large music program.
