“My job is to make people love choral music as much as I do, and that’s a lot. I really love choral music.

How did this happen? Why do we tol…

The “maximum power principle” may sound like the doctrine of an evil supervillain, but it actually applies to all living creatures.

“I ask them to sing with maximum efficiency, accessing their singer’s formant, and from there, we’ll ask for specific sounds. Sometimes conductors get stuck asking them to blend, to listen. When we do that, it’s like giving them an 8-pack of Crayola and asking them to color. Instead, we start the rehearsal with a 64-pack and then throughout the reh…
