Webinar: When Choral Music isn’t enough
10/04/2023 – 18:21
Join us online on May 17 at 5pm to learn more on choral music. The idea of our speaker is just to have a think about what happens when you’re singing music (often early music) that seems to have little or no relevance in the 21st century. He will show a few different approaches (based mostly on projects of his own ensemble, I Fagiolini) and there’ll be plenty of video excerpts.
Meet the lecturer : Robert Hollingworth currentPageId
Robert founded I Fagiolini in 1986. Away from the group he has directed the English Concert, Academy of Ancient Music, BBC Concert Orchestra, Irish Baroque Orchestra and some of the world’s finest chamber choirs including Accentus, NDR Chor, the National Chamber Choir of Ireland, BBC Singers, Danish National Vocal Ensemble, RIAS Kammerchor, and Capella Cracoviensis.
He is the Artistic Director for Stour Music and is Reader in Music at the University of York where he directs ‘The 24’ and runs an MA in Solo-Voice Ensemble Singing. He has written and presented programmes on BBC Radio 3 and more recently created over 30 episodes of the YouTube choral series ‘SingTheScore’ as well as presenting the podcast ‘Choral Chihuahua’ with Eamonn Dougan.
