Upon agreement with the instructor Students will examine
and discuss the works of Palestrina, Monteverdi, Banchieri,
Marenzio, Ravel, Hindemith and Strawinsky among others.
Each participant will take part in
the chorus (formed also by the students). It is not
required to have specific vocal training. The student
should be familiar with the fundamentals of voice production
and problems associated with it.
Problems inherent to a choral group,
derived from singing one part while listening to and
blending with other parts, finding balance between sections,
fusion, pitch and clearness of the polyphonic discourse
will be discussed and practiced during the course.
The union of these various areas will allow the student
to learn how to conduct a choral group to the ideal
performance with all its technical and musical peculiarities.
