Panel – Candace Kruger, Tracy Wong, Ed Le Brocq– moderated by Andrew Pennay
A discussion about access to and content of music education in our schools and communities.
This session will be hands-on, voices-on, practical and interactive. We will experience and explore many different ways in which the fundamental solfa system can be applied and of great benefit to your choir. The rewards are finer tuning and higher levels of musicianship. We will cover vocal and body warm-ups, canons, part-songs and repertoire, all infused with solfa.
This session focuses on the unique folk-inspired choral repertoire for treble choirs by Southeast Asian music creators (composers & arrangers) that captures their lived experiences. Through healthy vocal approaches, it will also be a discovery on the flexibility of the collective singing voice in tone, expression, and storytelling.
All conference delegates will form part of the 2024 Conference Choir, led by renowned conductors Tracy Wong (Canada/Malaysia) and Mark O’Leary OAM. The choir will rehearse two pieces, including a new conference commission by Juliana Kay, and perform at the choir concert on the Wednesday evening.
