Using music to build community and create social change.
|
| "Nashville in Harmony is the most rewarding adventure I have ever experienced. After a career in the music ministry and the music publishing industry, I am so grateful to have the opportunity to partner with this passionate group of singers as they embrace the challenge to excel musically and to make a dynamic difference in the community in which they live. Professional training at the collegiate and graduate levels, and years of experience conducting choirs across the US and abroad, have now come to fruition in the invitation to conduct this unique family of volunteer musicians from all across Music City. They often hear me say, "Let's stand; let's sing; let's change the world." I believe those three challenges embody who we are: 1) To stand together, shoulder to shoulder, modeling the colorful diversity of our community; 2) To sing out a cry for justice with the highest degree of artistry we can attain; and 3) To partner with those who share our mission to make an impact on our community." -- Don Schlosser |
