The Crossing at a Crossroads (with Teacher Notes and Instructions)

The Crossing is a professional vocal chamber ensemble dedicated to the performance and recording of contemporary choral music through commissioned works from leading composers. The works that the choir presents also respond to modern social, political, and environmental issues. Directed by Donald Nally, The Crossing has earned numerous accolades for its ambitious recordings. The case surveys four important works that The Crossing has commissioned. Executive Director Jonathan Bradley is looking to turn the enthusiasm and praise for The Crossing’s achievements into organizational sustainability for the long term. Metrics for success appropriate to the mission of The Crossing present a major challenge.
