It brings together management literature and a survey of the community choir scene with the development of community choir leadership. It provides a useful introduction to the sustaining of community choirs, including the use of English folksong\u003cbr\u003ematerial in this context. Some useful arrangements of folk songs are included. Community singing events are described with helpful advice on setting up and managing these. It presents a useful model of the range of skills necessary for aspiring community choir leaders. This is linked with the formation of a community that contains spiritual elements; this is theorized in relation to the role of the parish church in communal singing. It also discusses the two aesthetics of choral singing and the relationship between oral and literate traditions. The book arises from the engagement of the University of Winchester in partnership with the local community, which is theorized.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e June Boyce-Tillman,Sarah Morgan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3034322658\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783034322652\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Lang Ltd, International Academic Publis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/29\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.41d","brand":"June Boyce-Tillman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48089075450111,"sku":"9783034322652","price":74.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2fa45a84-4c22-4ee0-b0a1-6b759cba86b1.jpg?v=1769108056","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-river-rather-than-a-june-boyce-tillman-9783034322652","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
