"Wow, what a week!  Intense - yes!  Inspiring - absolutely!  Dr. Bonner has the exceptional abiity to turn the deeper, typically unspoken aspects of choral conducting into very practical tools.  there was a whole new world well beyond technique to discover withmy choir - and Iím still discovering.  docís deep desire ist to see us all succeed."
     Lance Gaskill, First Wesleyan Church, High Point, NC

     "Dr. Bonner's unique approach to the physical aspects of conducting produces a dramatic difference in choral sound, and the music used in the seminar was the most outstanding collection of pieces for church choirs I have ever seen.  The greatest impact, though, was not technical, but spiritual.  I came home with a new sense of direction, a new motivation in being a ìone-person-at-a-timeî conductor/minister on a day-by-day basis, and a renewed joy in the art of choral music as an expression of genuine worship."
     Tommy Havens, First Baptist Church, Russellville, AR

     "I found the conducting seminar to be intensive and demanding. I felt that I learned more in one week than in four years of choral conducting methods classes. I learned some practical choral conducting techniques that yielded immediate results when I took them back to my choir. My choir's sound changed dramatically and instantly when I used my newly learned conducting techniques. I never realized that I had so much control over the sound of my choral group? My choir is delighted with my attempts to "raise the bar" and is determined to meet the challenge! Their tone is fuller and their sound has more energy and life!"
     Linda Younkin, Christ the King Church, Springfield, IL

   "Your methods and techniques have restored the joy of choral music and choral conducting within my very soul. I simply call it a personal, spiritual, and musical revival." 
      Merril Smoak, Jr., Trinity Baptist Church, Livermore, CA

   "I became active in Dr. Bonner's Conducting Seminars about 12 years ago. Through these years my ability to "paint" a beautiful musical landscape has dramatically changed. Dr. Bonner has significantly impacted how I relate to my choirs, the congregation, even my family. Choir rehearsals have been revolutionized. Dr. Bonner's uncanny insight into selecting repertoire will forever leave its imprint on my choirs and our congregation. It has been a powerful life-changing journey."
