|
|
This autumn, the CMC Chorale will be putting on a concert of choral music, and choral pop music, including music from around the world. It will be a great and really fun concert, and something that all can enjoy!
Music includes jazz standards, classical, pop music, video game music, and some world music!
Rehearsals begin on Sunday, July 24, and the concert is on Saturday September 3.
We know that some people may be on vacation, and unable for the first or second rehearsal, and that is fine. We completely understand. There will be a total of 6 rehearsals before the concert, with one of them being a longer, intensive rehearsal.
If you are interested in being involved in the fall concert, please reply to this email, and let us know!
It will be a really great time, and a great time to meet new friends!
All new members will have to sing very briefly for me, so we can place you in the correct section. However, everyone can be involved, as the only requirement to be in the choir is to be able to sing in tune.
Best wishes, and see you all soon!

Introduction - The Camarata Music Company is a non-profit organization that provides an opportunity for people, both Korean and foreigners, to perform beautiful classical music together. With the lack of performance opportunities within Korea, we aim to provide an avenue for classical musicians to perform, hone in on their musical technique, build repertoire, and perform. With members from many nationalities (currently 19 different nationalities), we hope to bring many different experiences from people of many different cultures. We also wish to provide more opportunities for the public to hear classical performances, and experience collaborative performances of people from many different nationalities.
Performance - The CMC Chorale performs 3 major concerts every year, building up to our large Christmas concert of Handel's Messiah.
The CMC Chamber Singers performs numerous concerts throughout the year, including our 4 large concerts. Along with the four large concerts, the Chamber Singers can be seen singing for fundraisers, lecture concerts, various business events, and private parties. The Chamber Singers often collaborate with other top choirs in Korea, to further provide for a mentally and emotionally stimulating concert experience.
The CMC Orchestra is a semi-professional orchestra. The orchestra can be heard alongside the Chorale in numerous concerts, including the annual spring concert, and the Christmas performances of Messiah. The CMC orchestra, beginning in 2012, will be hosting their "Young Artists of the Future" Concert, where one young artist, aged 14 and under, will be selected to perform as a soloist with the orchestra.
We take a step further than the standard repertoire in Korea, and work to perform other works that may not be as popular or mainstream in Korea, even if they are elsewhere. We also perform the classics, offering a variety of music, genres, languages and styles, from Latin masses, oratorio, opera and operetta, musical theatre, and secular classical.
Outreach Vision - CMC believes that music is something that should be shared with everyone, no matter what their situation, especially children. So, it is the vision of CMC to establish a music program in local orphanages and low-income areas. One of the ultimate goals of this project is to create a children's choir and orchestra, provide lessons free of charge (in English and Korean), purchase musical instruments for children who otherwise wouldn't be able to afford them, and to provide high-quality performances that are accessible to all.
