Choral singing is a human practice โ for choralists, for conductors, and for the communities they serve.
At Choir Baton, we believe the transformative power of choral singing belongs to everyone โ from adults discovering their voices for the first time, to conductors shaping the next room they walk into. Three interconnected pillars. One growing movement. A practice that was always meant to be yours.
The choral room holds three positions โ choralists, conductors, and the communities they serve. Each space below serves one of those positions. All three serve the same practice.
The Choralist Method, built for the people growing into their practice. Beginners. Returners. The ones who were quietly told the music wasn't for them. Musicianship, Mindset, and Culture โ taught as the integrated practice they actually are.
Continuing education for conductors building the conditions. Score study, rehearsal craft, vocal pedagogy, and the working craft of running a modern choral program โ on a schedule a working podium actually has.
Eighty-plus episodes of the practice thought out loud โ choralists, conductors, communities, and the questions that don't fit cleanly into a curriculum. New conversations every other week.
A research-backed, three-pillar framework that makes choral singing accessible, engaging, and transformative โ for the choralist learning, the conductor leading, and the community held inside both.
Voice + Literacy Integration
The technical foundation โ the physical ability to sing and the cognitive ability to read music, taught together as one integrated skill. Sound first. Sight second. Theory third.
Confidence + Identity Transformation
The internal shift โ from "I'm not good enough" to "I'm ready, I'm prepared, I belong in this room." Evidence-based psychology applied to music education.
Belonging + Social Fluency
The social integration โ the etiquette, the unwritten rules, the ensemble fluency that nobody ever explicitly teaches. Culture is mindset made collective.
A world where choral music is genuinely available to anyone who wants in. Where choralists have a real path to develop their voices. Where conductors are equipped with methods that actually move singers forward. Where communities know what it feels like to live with a choral tradition at their center.

Choral conductor. MM in Choral Conducting (NAU), MBA (NC State). Fifteen years on the podium and eighty episodes into a podcast she keeps insisting is "just a side project." Founder of Choir Baton, based in Raleigh, NC.
She built this house because the field had quietly stopped treating choral singing as the human practice it actually is. Choir Baton is the argument that it always was โ and the curriculum, conversation, and community that follow from believing it.
