WORKSHOP THIS
SUMMER
T
HE Cultural Center of the Philippines will hold its 14th
Hands-On Choral Workshop on May 29 - June 2, 2018
from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM in various venues of the
Cultural Center of the Philippines. A program under the
Center for Choral Performance, the Choral Workshop is
a choral clinic open to amateur choirs who have been in
existence for at least two years, and choral conductors,
who wish to hone their skills in choral singing, conduct-
ing and performance. This highly regarded Workshop
has trained choirs and conductors from different parts of the country,
some of whom have already competed and won in local and international
choral competitions.
The Philippine Madrigal Singers led by choirmaster Mark Anthony
Carpio leads the team of trainors composed of present and alumni
members of the world renowned choral ensemble.
The Workshop modules include sectional vocal techniques,
sight-singing and ear training, individual choir cliniquing sessions,
conducting sessions for choral conductors, and a plenary session wherein
all the choirs and conductors gather together to learn a common piece.
The training program will also provide each choir the opportunity to
perform in their own time slot within the five days. Participating choirs
will be given the opportunity to render a short performance at the
Tanghalang Aurelio Tolentino within the duration of the Workshop.
For the first time, the Workshop will provide the individually registered
qualified active choral conductors the opportunity to conduct the
laboratory choir, the Sing Philippines Youth Choir (SPYC) during the
Workshop proper.
The Workshop will culminate in a program at the Tanghalang Nicanor
Abelardo (CCP Main Theater) on Saturday, June 2, 2018 at 3:00 PM,
featuring all the participating choirs and conductors. Due to limited choir
slots for the Workshop, registration is on a first-come-first-served basis.
