SUMMARY:Advanced Conducting Master Class in Chicago\, IL
DESCRIPTION:ALL CONDUCTOR POSITIONS HAVE BEEN FILLED.  \nTHE APPLICATION DEADLINE EXTENDED TO JUNE 15th FOR CONDUCTOR/OBSERVER POSITONS!       See application requirements below. \n \nIn a uniquely designed format\, this Master Class will offer the experienced choir director a chance to work with a professional chamber choir and 3 hours of quality podium time under the guidance of Dr. Peter Jermihov– a dedicated master teacher and mentor. The class will culminate in a celebration of a full All-Night Vigil and Hierarchical Divine Liturgy officiated by Archbishop Peter of Chicago at the Pokrov Cathedral (ROCOR). Selected students will be given the opportunity to direct the choir at both Divine Services. The Master Class will open 8 seats for active conductors\, 4 women & 4 men\, who will receive intensive individual instruction\, and 20 seats for observer conductors\, who will receive full access to all 24 sessions and instruction in score analysis and preparation. Members of both categories of participants will be given a chance to audition for the choir (these auditions must take place before the dates of the Master Class). The class will be taught in English and Russian (as needed)\, and the repertoire will be sung in English and Church Slavonic. \nThe professionally-trained conductor\, in addition to acquiring manual conducting\, rehearsing\, and organizing skills\, must also excel at analyzing and preparing scores for performance. This aspect of a conductor’s training is often underemphasized or entirely omitted from the curriculum of study. What is the form of a piece of music\, how does the form breakdown into smaller phrases\, periods and sections\, what expressive markings does the composer employ\, what type of texture\, voice-leading and style are evident\, and what is the composer trying to accomplish?—are all questions a conductor must answer before he/she steps on the podium. After the analysis is done\, the score must be thoroughly marked and prepared for performance. There are various approaches to the discipline of analyzing and marking a conductor’s score\, and this Advanced Conducting Master Class offers the expertise and insights of Dr. Nicholas Reeves\, an accomplished Orthodox composer\, theorist\, and church musician. Dr. Reeves will work with both Active Conductors and Observers to help them understand analytical processes and develop effective and personalized habits of score preparation. Dr. Reeves’ involvement in the program is a unique feature of this Master Class\, and we are delighted to offer our participants a chance to grow as conductors and musicians.\n \nTake advantage of this unique learning opportunity and launch your conducting skills to a new level. \nLogistics update:\nPaTRAM has negotiated a special room rate for anyone interested in lodging for this event.
