A year on from last year’s highly successful Choral Connect conference in Auckland, we’re delighted to release a series of videos we recorded at selected conference sessions.
Choral Connect is the Association of Choral Director’s (ACD’s) biennial conference providing professional development and networking for choral musicians of all backgrounds and experience. The 2021 conference theme was The Choral Traditions of Aotearoa New Zealand, and many of the presentations explored and celebrated the musical traditions of our Māori and Pasifika communities.
Our second video in the series features Swedish-born choral specialist Sofi Jeannin, whose presentation on the challenges of programming and repertoire selection drew on her wide and varied experience directing the BBC Singers, the French Radio Chorus, and the choir school la Maîtrise de Radio France.
