	New Georgia Encyclopedia: Robert Shaw (1916-1999)
		Robert Shaw, the music director and conductor of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra for more than twenty years, brought the symphony to its current position as one of the finest in the country.
		It was out of this group in 1948 that Shaw formed the Robert Shaw Chorale, which for two decades reigned as America's premier touring choral group and was sent by the U.S. State Department to thirty countries in Europe, the Soviet Union, the Middle East, and Latin America.
		Shaw was appointed in 1979 by U.S president Jimmy Carter to the National Council on the Arts, and in 1988 he was inducted into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame.

		Shaw came from a family both religious (his father, Shirley R. Shaw, was a minister of the Church of Christ) and enthusiastically musical (his mother, a fine soloist, was a mainstay of the choirs in her busband's churches).
		Shaw was reluctant to give up his divinity studies and declined Waring's offer, but he was interested enough to write the bandleader later asking for a summer job.
		Perhaps Shaw himself was less surprised than anyone at the Russians' approval, since he had always insisted that there was "something naively communicative in chorale" which would be uniquely able to transcend national differences and reveal the qualities of emotion and "heart" invested in the work by the performers.

		Robert Shaw's absence provided an even more poignant reminder of the large shadow he has cast as the primary force in American choral music during the second half of this century.
		Shaw's rehearsal techniques are legendary: his insistence on rhythmic accuracy, perfect intonation, enunciation of the smallest phoneme.
		There are many imitators of Robert Shaw's techniques--musicians who attempt to create what he creates through his "musical recipes." But what they often lack is a commitment to a deeper understanding of art as conservator of the best and the noblest in human history.

	Robert Shaw’s Ministry of Music
		Shaw deplores the fare emanating from what he calls "Crystal Christ-o-rama, California," maintaining that "there are not enough disposal plants in the country to handle TV Sunday morning effluence!" No mystery, no pain.
		In 1962 the Robert Shaw Chorale sang Bach’s B Minor Mass in the U.S.S.R. The performance was broadcast to all the iron-curtain countries.
		Shaw’s outstanding musicianship, deeply spiritual and human qualities and sense of mission have inspired those whose lives he has touched to carry on his legacy and his ministry with love, devotion and integrity.

		This was originally recorded in the late 60s, near the end of The Robert Shaw Chorale's reign as arguably the finest chorus in the U.S., and the arrangements are by Alice Parker, who I personally consider to be among the best choral arrangers since Bach.
		From the beginning the resonance of the men of the chorale is obvious but not too prominent and never becomes a distraction.
		Robert Shaw was the master of choral singing in his day and the many albums of choral music, both a cappella and accompanied, both light classics and the big works, remain as a tribute to his gifts.

		In these mostly unaccompanied Irish folk songs, Robert Shaw is freed from the concerns of an orchestral accompaniment and able to focus on refined choral singing, showcasing why he will be remembered as one of the great choral conductors of all time.
		Shaw`s chorale, however, here displays the full-voiced and beautifully blended singing that was its hallmark, and Alice Parker`s arrangements go far to celebrate this ensemble`s strengths.
		In "Johnny, I Hardly Knew You," the whole rich palette of the chorale`s sounds combine to create a stirring, carefully paced dramatic tableau.
