Give Me the Chance, with Ryan Main
Choral Connectivity: A People-First Approach to Singing11/03/22 • 66 min
Composer, teacher, and choral entrepreneur Ryan Main shares his inspiring story with us today about how he came to the field of music. Ryan's story is unique, as he is now a force of nature in the world of choir, but he didn't sing in choir until his sophomore year of college. Ryan walked in to an audition for choir totally unprepared, but the choral director saw potential in Ryan, and gave him a chance anyway. Thanks to that chance, Ryan's impact on the world of choral music is great through his composed music and the organization he founded, the Youth Chorus of Kansas City. We should all learn from this story to never discourage and to remember the power of seeing potential in all people.
Be sure to listen all the way through and definitely check out his music to perform with your groups or consider commissioning him for a piece. Additionally, here is the link to Ryan's list of recommended accessible choral repertoire for young voices.
