Exciting News!

Maestro Tsung Yeh, the Music Director of the Singapore Chinese Orchestra is joining us  for this year’s edition of the Woodlands Young Conductors Workshop (WYCW)! This year, we celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the WYCW and Maestro Yeh’s guidance and sharing is tremendous for the workshop and for all participants, both Active and Observers.

Format

This year, the WYCW will be conducted in two parts on separate set of dates. For the first part (Wind Band) will be conducted over one day (weekend) and participants will be led through band repertoire which will be looking at conducting basics and podium engagement. The main drive will be to learn techniques of non-verbal communication. The second part of the workshop will be led my Maestro Tsung Yeh and will be conducted over four days; preview sessions and podium time. Participants will be guided through Classical/Romantic and 20th Century chamber orchestra repertoire which provide insights into conducting larger ensembles and the symphony orchestra. As part of Maestro Yeh’s segment, active participants will engage in previews and discussion of workshop repertoire as part of mental and physical preparation before engaging the chamber ensemble in musical learning and explorations.
