As Filipino choral music becomes more visible in conference concert setlists and all-state programs, sharing Filipino geographic and historical context, language pronunciation, and composer knowledge with ensembles becomes necessary as we move towards a future that expands our sonic horizons. Session presenters will lead participants as they explore various Filipino works through the Choral Allyship Framework, applicable to music from any borrowed culture, aiming for a more informed approach and process from programming to performance. Attendees will read a selection of accessible Filipino choral pieces, from traditional folk songs to contemporary compositions and immerse themselves in the unique musical idioms of the Philippines. Each piece will be accompanied by insightful commentary on its place within the Filipino choral space and live diction coaching from a Tagalog speaker.
