IFCM’s Conductors without Borders, in alliance with the choral organizations Voce in Tempore (Mexico), Fundación Schola Cantorum de Venezuela and the Faculty of Music of the Universidad Autónoma de México (UNAM) will offer a virtual seminar for conductors in order to contribute to the training of choral conductors in all countries of the region.
The seminar, to be held 24-26 September 2021, will focus on vocal pedagogy, rehearsal and conducting techniques and strategies, analysis and study of scores, and choral repertoire.
