Hello Choral Enthusiasts!
​
Each year, the Central Manitoba Choral Association hosts many events to support the choral community and programs throughout our region, and our Fall Choral Workshops are coming up soon! 

Choral workshops are a wonderful way to build community and offer musical enrichment among the young singers of our region. These workshops are also a great way to strengthen school programs by giving your musicians a special day which focuses on them! It is also fabulous Professional Development, as the clinicians and their chosen repertoire are excellent.  

If you are familiar with workshops past, it may be worth noting that over the past few years we have changed the workshop schedules to be consistent between Senior and Junior - both days now end with a 4:00 pm Concert (ending around 5:30 pm).

*If you have grade 7/8 students with changed/changing voices, you may wish to send those particular students to the Senior Workshop instead - we support whatever you feel will serve your students best. Please ensure that there is a chaperone attending either way. 

I've included more details below, but as always, please feel free to reach out with questions or concerns! We hope to see you there!

THE BASIC DETAILS:
Attached are the registration forms for the Central Manitoba Choral Workshops. There are two separate dates, depending on the age of students you intend to bring:

• Senior Workshop (Grades 9-12) will be held on Thursday, October 12th in MacGregor, Manitoba. It consists of 2 choirs:
  • Grade 9/10 Choir

The cost of the workshop is $20 per student, and includes the cost of renting the venues, purchasing sheet music, playing clinicians, and more! Students are asked to bring their own bag lunch, but snacks will be provided in the morning AND afternoon for all singers.  

Chaperones are needed for each choir that your students are participating in (i.e. if you are bringing Grade 5s and Grade 6s, please send at least 1 chaperone to be with the Grade 5s, and at least 1 to be with the Grade 6s)

If you are sending an individual singer or student, please ensure they have an adult who is considered "their" adult, and is responsible for them in case of emergency or other concerns.
