About ICDA
For over fifty years, the Indiana Choral Directors Association has served as the primary advocate for choral music in the Hoosier state. Organized as a state chapter of the American Choral Directors Association, ICDA provides resources and creates community for member choral conductors of all types throughout Indiana. Among its major activities each year, ICDA hosts a three-day Summer Conference, sponsors the Indiana All-State Honor Choir at the IMEA Professional Development Conference and the All-State Jazz Choir at the ICDA Summer Conference, and publishes a newsletter titled Notations. District Representatives serve as liaisons between the state-level organization and members in each ISSMA Zone. Repertoire and Resource Chairs share expertise in diverse specialty areas through reading and interest sessions, articles, and maintaining ISSMA repertoire lists.
