Being the Future  of Choral Music
Conducting and Teaching as Community-Making

Doreen Rao’s 2013 Choral Institute at Carthage College will focus on conducting and teaching spiritually inspired choral music based on mystical traditions. Blending the ancient and modern, classical and contemporary, this year’s repertoire and conducting focus will include an interactive workshop on David Brunner’s new “Ecstatic Songs” with Sandra Snow and the composer -- operatic works for youth choirs by Benjamin Britten (selections from Noye’s Fludde, Op 59) and sampler of Canadian choral music by Rupert Lang, Mark Sirett and Imant Raminsh.

Doreen Rao will introduce the concept of “collaborative style leadership” and thematic programming based on her recent research and publications. The new Institute Prelude program will offer three one-day workshop options: Voice Pedagogy for Choral Conductors, an intensive with Lorna MacDonald, Basic Conducting Technique and Score Analysis, an orientation for beginning conductors with Lee Kesselman, and Advanced Conducting Techniques with Doreen Rao (separate registration required).
