Video description
Even as the world appears to be getting the Covid-19 pandemic under control, it is not necessarily business-as-usual for the singing-choral arts sector. Choral organizations are still facing difficult decisions about how to sing-rehearse-perform safely, how to minimize risks, how to maintain financial stability, how to recover and/or stay connected with donors/sponsors/audiences, and how to plan the next season. Nevertheless, for some, Covid-19 has inspired them to move beyond what they have always done and has propelled them to do things that they might never have considered prior to the pandemic. The Canadian singing-choral arts sector is reimagining how our community communicates and how it collaborates. Building on these new, imaginative and Covid-inspired innovations, we invite the creators/conductors/composers/artists of three major Canadian projects to explore how these projects will continue to grow and have a life after Covid-19. The session includes a live introduction by the Co-Directors of The Singing Network with pre-recorded dialogue and video samples from select Canadian singing-choral projects, followed by dialogue with online participants. The intended outcome of this session is to motivate and inspire ongoing individual and collective singing and choral music-making in a post-Covid world.
