HallƩ & Choral Leadership Network

About HallƩ & Choral Leadership Network

The Choral Leadership Network, inspired and led by the Hallé, brings together a range of partners involved in choral singing and training. Their aim is to promote the joy of choral singing through increased training and resource opportunities for choral leaders, promoting best practice within any type of choral genre, encouraging more boys to sing and supporting conducting with young leaders. Partners include Opera North, Royal Northern College of Music, Greater Manchester Music Hub, Sing For Pleasure and Association of British Choral Directors (ABCD), amongst others. A major project they have supported recently has been a workshop run by ABCD, focussing on Boys’ changing voices. Including members of the Hallé Children’s and Youth Training Choir, Dr Martin Ashley (Professor of Music at Edge Hill University and leading researcher on Cambiata voices), choral leaders were guided on repertoire suitable for boys’ changing voices, how the physical changes to a boy’s voice may impact the sound, and finally their own Hallé Youth Director Stuart Overington, ran a short workshop to help brush up their conducting skills.
