On the Horizon invites us to look forward—to the future of choral music, to innovative pedagogy, and to the evolving voices in our field. This year’s conference will highlight new, creative, and emerging teaching techniques while centering diverse repertoire and the contemporary issues that shape our classrooms and communities.

We seek sessions that spark curiosity and encourage forward-thinking practice—sessions that challenge traditional models, explore fresh perspectives, and offer creative solutions to the opportunities and complexities facing choral musicians today.

Whether grounded in research or rooted in practical application, we welcome your voice at the table.

Interactive and participatory sessions—those that invite attendees to sing, move, discuss, and create—are especially encouraged. Let’s explore what lies ahead, together.
