ACDA-PA is pleased to announce this summer's choral conducting masterclass for college and university students. The masterclass will be held as part of ACDA-PA's summer conference on August 3-5 at West Chester University. Student conductors will spend Sunday afternoon receiving a preliminary coaching session from an ACDA-PA mentor. On Monday, each conductor will receive coaching from our headliners, Anton Armstrong and Pearl Shangkuan. Each collegiate conductor may nominate up to two students for the masterclass. Please confirm that your students are available to attend the conference prior to submitting their names for consideration. All nominations must be submitted to [email protected] by May 31, 2025. Nominations should include a current email and cell phone number. Contact Nate Zullinger at the same email address with any questions.
