Here are video-recorded statements from some prominent musicians on the value and importance of choral music:
“Choral music, especially serious choral music, is confrontational. Music is not here to please or to make us feel good. Nor is it here to soothe or to respond to our specific needs. Its power lies not in giving answers, but in asking questions. And in order to ask searching questions so that we might have a chance of answering them for ourselves, the music must be of a high order.”
—David Hoose, 2008 Lifetime Achievement Award recipient
