Research - Choral teaching

I have been browsing the internet for relevant articles. Specific to choral teaching and established choirs and their conductors. This yielded interesting clips and articles on The Sixteen and Harry Christophers. I have heard The Sixteen on radio and CD so know their style. They have a self-titled YouTube channel which has several video clips around their education program and workshops. This was informative about the Conductor (Christophers), Associate-conductor (Eamonn Dougan) and the Animatuers  (Sam Glazer) ways of working with singers. This clip also gives us several of the singers experiences of the workshops.

Google Scholar yielded a few sample dissertations with content on music teaching as well as a text title, English Ways: Conversations with English Choral Conductors, Sanborg J. & Rutter J. 2001, Hunshaw Music Inc. Sadly, I have yet to find this in a library catalogue so plan to request it through inter loan if possible.

Other Directors/Conductors of note which came up in my search were: John Eliot Gardiner; Simon Halrey and Stephen Cleobury.
