The F. Melius Christiansen (FMC) Endowment Fund was
established in 1996 by the American Choral Directors Association
of Minnesota (ACDA-MN) to guarantee a vibrant future for
choral music in the state of Minnesota. Its mission is to provide
financial support to Minnesota choral conductors for professional
development and graduate education, to encourage young musicians
in the state of Minnesota to pursue choral conducting as a career, and
to provide financial support for administration of FMC Endowment
Fund Committee activities.
THE INSPIRATION
The endowment’s namesake, F. Melius Christiansen (1871-1955),
was a Norwegian immigrant who is considered the ‘father’ of
a cappella singing in North America. Christiansen founded the St.
Olaf Choir in Northfield, Minnesota, and shaped it into arguably the
best-known collegiate choir in the world. For nearly thirty years, he
used an ethic of hard work to achieve perfect intonation, seamless
ensemble blend, and crisp diction. The F. Melius Christiansen
Endowment Fund recognizes Christiansen’s inspirational
contributions to the choral art.

THE IMPACT
In addition to providing administrative support for the Endowment
Committee, the F. Melius Christiansen Endowment Fund offers

undergraduate or graduate levels and to conductors actively directing
academic, community, corporate, faith-based and professional choral
ensembles. Scholarship programs provide financial support for
ACDA-MN members and collegiate student conductors to attend
Summer Dialogue, ACDA national and division conferences, the
World Choral Symposium on Choral Music and to pursue graduate
study in choral conducting. Scholarship descriptions and the 2014
