Mostly Margutti
– an atelier with Corrado Margutti (Italy) –
Something wonderful happens when a bunch of people come together to sing. We inhabit a space where diversity is celebrated, where community is built, and the whole of what we achieve is greater than the sum of its parts. We, the SYC Ensemble Singers, know this because we are living proof.
In March 2012, we’d like you, young people and the young at heart, to experience a unique choral journey as Italian composer and Monteverdian heir, Corrado Margutti, brings his music (mostly) to Singapore in a week-long atelier. Along the way, meet seemingly divergent kindred spirits, forge new bonds and explore Old World Music Made New. The atelier culminates in a concert performance of selected atelier works.
Singers must be able to read music and have at least 3 years’ experience singing in a choir. As the atelier can only accommodate a maximum of 48 singers in a balanced number of voice parts, you may be asked to audition.
If this sounds like your cup of espresso, send in your application now! Application closes 20 January 2012.
