Under the direction of Professor of Voice, Choral Conducting and Choral Music Karen Keating ’02, D.M.A., members of the Cantus Singers prepared curated playlists for targeted audiences based on their program of study: music education, music therapy or vocal performance.
The project, inspired by a similar assignment from Associate Professor of Voice, Conservatory Choir Director and Choral Artist Matt Oltman, D.M.A., challenged students to consider the choral arts from the perspective of programming, preparation and execution. Students were tasked with choosing a theme for their program, ensemble and repertoire, and then combining those elements into a document including program details, publisher information, costs, recordings, scores, program notes and more.
