ACDA conferences are a time for all who attend to become inspired, energized, and reimagine what is possible within our own rehearsal rooms. Even though the COVID-19 pandemic forced this year’s conference to be an all-virtual event, the core of what makes these conferences successful was still very much in place for this year’s Virtual National Conference: inspiring performances from some of the world’s best choirs, meaningful and engaging sessions from a diverse and knowledgeable group of presenters, and a continued reminder that we’re all in this business together. I left this year’s national conference reminded that the future remains bright for choral music, and I am so thankful to ACDA of Minnesota and the FMC Endowment Fund Committee for allowing me the opportunity to experience this unique conference first-hand. Thank you very much.
