This course will cover techniques of arrangements of choral and other vocal music, as well as techniques which are equally applicable to original choral compositions. Students will practice choral-style harmonization of per-existing melodies (such as folk and popular songs), and complete brief arrangements for different types of choral ensembles, including re-arrangements for different forces. Students will exposed to samples of choral music in various genres, including classical, folk and pop, to broaden their knowledge of choral repertoire and practical choral directing and arranging technique.
