"Zero to Sixty in Record Time is a marvelous précis on how to build a choral program from scratch. Laced with the humor and wisdom of experience, these are the things they should have told you in secondary choral methods class! Offering wonderful ideas and practical solutions, it is invaluable for the beginning teacher and inspiring for the seasoned veteran. It is worth its weight in gold!"

        Dr. Jerry Ulrich
        Director of Choral Activities
        Georgia Institute of Technology
        (Georgia Tech.)

 

If you are looking for answers to these questions...

  • I am basically starting my choir from scratch. Numbers are down, and the sound is weak. I want to build a solid program, but I don't know how. Where do I begin?

  • What do I do with thirty girls and three boys in choir?

  • My students don't take rehearsal - or me - seriously. They talk all the time, and I am constantly running damage control. What can I do to turn their attitudes around?

...then you are ready for this book.
