The American Choral Directors Association is the national organization for choral conductors within public and private schools, churches and professional choral ensembles. Students who are pursuing a choral music education degree or a music ministry degree are encouraged to join the student chapter for an annual membership fee that includes state and national membership and a discounted registered fee for the district conferences.

CFAMC

The Christian Fellowship of Art Music Composers seeks to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ and help build His kingdom by encouraging the work and witness of Christian composers of symphonic and chamber music, opera, and other concert works. They embrace musical integrity because of their Christian witness, and that their commitment to musical excellence will allow them to bring their Christian witness to the wider art music world. Located throughout the United States and abroad, CFAMC members are professional and academic composers (faculty and students), avocational composers, church musicians interested in art music, and other individuals who support the CFAMC mission and want to be involved in our activities.

The CFAMC national conference was hosted at Malone in 2018.  View the concerts on Livestream.
