Title: Choral conducting and the construction of meaning
First published: 2009
Description: "By comparing a variety of choral traditions, it investigates to an extent to which the connections between conductor demeanour and choral sound operate at a general level, and in what ways they are constructed within a specific idiom. Its findings will be of interest both to those engaged in the study of music as a cultural practice, and to practitioners involved in a choral conducting context that increasingly demands fluency in a variety of styles." -- Book jacket.
