They are intended to be encouraging rather than prescriptive. Thus, the standards set objectives for our membership, not expectations. We also recognize the diversity of settings in which our members practice their craft, and have attempted to allow for the musical goals of choral directors in a variety of circumstances. We consider that choral conducting is an art, and that outstanding results can be produced by a variety of personal styles and techniques. As advocates for excellence in all aspects of the choral art, WCDA introduces the following standards as an evolving set of guidelines for its members and their many constituencies. The Wisconsin Choral Directors Association represents a diverse group of choral musicians in our state: music educators from the elementary to the collegiate level, church musicians, community choir leaders, and friends and lovers of choral music.
