Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
This project will enable the festival participants to concentrate on the music, not notes. This is a realistic objective because it worked well for the 2012 festival. Dr. Jessop was able to concentrate on the music with the singers rather than teaching them the notes.If the festival participants come to that event with a basic knowledge of the music it will be apparent at the first run-through in the morning. We will also do a pre and post workshop survey of the singers to determine their prior knowledge of the music and post workshop, how much they learned.
Measurable Outcome(s)
Successful choral music project which resulted in increased skill level by participants.
