CME Institute courses link the standards of concert performance with the goals of music education. The repertoire-based course curriculum includes instruction in voice and vocal pedagogy, score preparation and musical analysis, conducting, program and rehearsal planning, choral pedagogy and performance practice. "The CME performance approach to music education is rooted in the contemplative practice of Mindfulness with a strong focus on cultural diversity and socially engaged musicianship". Doreen Rao, 2015

This is a chance to refresh and deepen your learning with the CME faculty and community or to experience a 'taster' session from your own home via Zoom. The day will offer conducting and vocal technique, score marking, reflective rehearsal pedagogy and philosophy. There will be space in the day to connect with others, ask questions and discover our plans for next year's course.

*A few subsided places will be available on request so as not to exclude anyone. Contact Jane.wheeler@livingsong.org.
