Virtual Vibes
Virtual Choir Production
Program Overview
Alberta health mandates state that we cannot sing in person at this time, but it doesn't mean that you need to say goodbye to your music program! A Virtual Choir will empower students with new knowledge through a unique platform of online engagement. It's the perfect opportunity to learn new skills and apply vocal pedagogy, utilize modern technology, and come together in a timeless video. Whether you choose to sing an original song or do a cover, we will lead you through the whole process; song choice, how to sing and record, timing, harmonies, etc. The final result is your very own Virtual Choir video!

Program Options
We understand that every choir and group is at a different stage of development and learning. Thus, we offer two different varieties of this program so that we can best suit your needs and interests.
Level 1: Simply Virtual
This variation of the Virtual Vibes program is best suited to more experienced choirs, or choirs that require minimal instruction. Your choir knows the song they are singing, are comfortable singing to a metronome track, and can sing this song with or without you conducting them (please note that if they require you to conduct, you will need to create a virtual conducting video. Don't worry, we'll walk you through the process!).
Level 2: All The Vibes
This is the full-on package and includes all aspects of the program and is a great option for schools looking for an artist in residence, virtual field trips and workshops. We will work with your choir from start to finish. The following aspects may be included as required: Vocal workshop, technique and pedagogy, choosing a song, creating an arrangement, composing an original song (in association with the Song Vibes program), learning about stage presence and expression, and a resource packet for continued learning.
