New Choir Positions

Dr. Robert Boer, Assistant Professor of Music and Choir Director at Montreat College, has created new leadership positions within the choir for selected students. The choral leaders will contribute to different logistical and performance efforts. Dr. Boer is proposing that for future selection these positions be filled by a vote from the choir, and that each position be awarded the scholarship money that has been granted to the Ambassadors Choir. These will be a unique addition to graduates' resumes and experience.

The positions and duties include:

President: This will primarily be a music leadership role with direct and frequent musical direction as well as input on aspects of performance, including the sound and the visual look of the choir.

Vice-President:  This will be a logistics manager.  The VP will help manage practice/sectional set-ups, concert preparation, tour preparation, and direct involvement and handling of various logistical matters. 

Chaplain: The Chaplain will be a spiritual leader in the choir. He or she will lead spiritual growth within the choir by directing devotional time along with occasional activities to build the team as the year progresses.

Publicity Director: This person will manage advertisement and outreach efforts.  Work will include preparing church bulletin/newsletter notices, posters, programs, and more to increase the choir’s range of outreach.  He or she will also have a vital role, along with the VP, in tour preparation for the choir's off-campus concerts.
