Have you ever thought while conducting your choir, "If I do more, my conducting will be more expressive and more effective"?  That's often how we as conductors approach our conducting style when in front of our choirs.  But an excellent session from the recent ACDA virtual conference shared a different perspective.  On today's episode of the podcast, I discuss conducting the choir and how sometimes, less is more!  I hope this episode gives you some things to think about, as well as that little nudge (if you need it!) to explore some new ideas with your conducting gesture.I’d love to hear from you--what’s something in your conducting that you are working on?  Are there ways that doing less has made your conducting more effective?  Send me an email at:  Matt@ChoirDirectorCorner.com  and let me know!Looking for some new warm-ups for your choir?  Then you should check out my FREE PDF: "50 Awesome Warm-ups for Your Choir"!  I've included links for audio/video examples for almost all of the warm-ups.  You can get your copy of the PDF here:choirdirectorcorner.com/warmupsLooking for an activity that you can do with your choir virtually as well as in-person?  Check out the solfege game, "The Choir Room is LAVA!"www.ChoirDirectorCorner.com/thechoirroomislavaLooking for some new reading material to further your skills as a choir director?  Check out my Choir Director Recommended Reading List for Choir Directors, which includes links to where you can find all of the different books on the list!For the full Choir Director Recommended Reading List, here's the link:choirdirectorcorner.com/readinglistFor more great resources, hop on over to our website:www.ChoirDirectorCorner.comMake sure you check us out over on Facebook!  You can find our private group at:www.ChoirDirectorCornerGroup.com
