One of the projects funded by Alfred Nash Patterson grants in 2012 is a set of high school workshops conducted by the Vermont professional chorus Counterpoint. Those workshops are scheduled for early April and early May 2013, at Mill River Union High School in Clarendon VT, Mount Abraham Union High School in Bristol VT, and one other school to be determined soon. Director Nathaniel Lew works directly with choral directors at each school to tailor the workshops to the school's needs and the repertory that the kids are studying.
