MEET THE CHOIR with Edvard Grieg Choir & EGK talent program
Sunday 12 September 2021
Sunday 12 September, 16:00, Troldhaugen.
EGK's talent program is aimed at talents aged 11-16 who want more extensive singing and choir training. Six young singers between the ages of 11 and 16 will participate in the talent program in 2021.
The purpose of the Møt koret seminars is to give amateurs and budding talents inspiration and useful advice and tips in meeting professional players in an informal setting. We tailor a package to the individual choir, with a focus on musical coaching and rehearsal technique, ear training, warm-up exercises and advice on healthy voice use, as well as practice in voice groups. The seminar is usually rounded off with an informal concert performance together with singers from the Edvard Grieg Choir.
