From the AVA... Damion Womack, President, Alabama Vocal Association
I enjoyed the opportunity to meet so many of you at Fall Workshop. There were many new faces this year. We need more of our new teachers to become involved in our wonderful organization. Our clinicians, Dr. Andre Thomas, Director of Choral Activities at Florida State, and Dr. Lori Hetzel, Associate Director of Choral Activities at The University of Kentucky, enjoyed meeting and talking to all of you. I hope you will be able to use some of the topics discussed in your classroom. I would also like to thank the AVA Governing Board for all of their help and support.
Please make plans to attend AMEA January 21-23, 2010. Our featured
clinician will be Dr. Betsy Cook Weber, Professor of Choral Music Education at The University of Houston. Dr. Weber is well known in our field. She has presented workshops across the country. You will enjoy Dr. Weber.
This year we had a total of 11 choral groups submit applications to perform at AMEA! This is great news!
Please
continue to submit applications and support AMEA. Congratulations to the directors who have been selected to present concerts at AMEA this year: Spanish Fort High School Las Canciones, Kathy Hughes Conductor; Alabama A&M University Concert Choir, Dr. Horace Carney Conductor; R.F Bumpus Middle
School 7th Grade Choir, Sal Rodas
Conductor; Hueytown High School Concert Choir, Elizabeth Hearn, Conductor; Auburn University Chamber Choir, Dr. William Powell Conductor, and The University of Alabama Concert Choir, Dr. John Ratledge, Conductor.
As always, I feel that we have one of the most productive vocal organizations in the South. When we work together, anything is possible.
