In addition to his position as Director of the Alamance Chorale, he currently works in Human Resources with Dixie Sales Company in Brown's Summit. With degrees in both instrumental and choral music Dr. Black has served as a clinician and adjudicator for groups and competitions including several musical areas: band, vocal/choral, and handbell.
