When composing choral music, do you find a text to set music to? Or do you write music first, then find a text to add to it?

Wow. 500 subscribers! Crazy to think we just (officially) celebrated 100 subs last year. I have a lot planned for 2026, and here’s a glimpse at it:
- New choral compositions
- New Choral Music From Scratch series
- Choral music lyric videos
- Commission documentaries (a broader look at the story of how different pieces came to be).

Can’t wait to share all of these with you! If you’ve subbed or watched my channel at any point in the past - THANK YOU. ~ Christian

I just emailed the FINAL score of a choral commission to the client! Super happy to have this piece done and looking forward to seeing it come to life. It almost feels like I’ve let one of my children out into the world to become a fully-matured adult - I can’t control it, but I have to trust that my preparation has paved the way for a successful life! #composer #choralcomposer #choir #choralmusic #commission #composition #sheetmusic

If you’re a choral composer (or want to be one), we just launched a new Skool community where you can connect with other composers and learn about their compositional process! www.skool.com/choral-composer-collective-9792/abou…

Oh, you thought we were done? NOPE! We have ANOTHER exciting collaboration to announce with the Marble Falls High School Choir! I’ve been working with Director Bryce Gage on this project for a while now and am thrilled that his choir will be premiering a new work during their Christmas concert this Winter! #choir #choralmusic #composer #commission #musiceducation #sheetmusic #fortnerfam
