INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION FOR CHORAL MUSIC

Latin American Choral Development Committee Cristian Grases, Chair

(2)

Overall Purpose

Identify chorally-weak areas of Latin America and provide support in their development.

Basic Goals (for each country):

1. Contribute to the creation and/or development of educational structures (for both conductors/teachers and singers)

2. Contribute to the creation and/or development of professional membership associations

These goals will take time to achieve, and the committee work needs to be systematically organized in phases.

The presence of IFCM in Latin America is very week (according to the number of members reported by Nadine). We should:

• Team up with young professionals

• Create an event to elevate our recognition in the area

• Decrease cost of membership and/or create programs to attract professionals Phase 1

Create a working structure for the entire area of Latin America. This structure has five regions, and each region has a leader that is a part of my working committee. The regions are as follows:

A. Norte y Centroamérica (North and Central America)

a. Countries: Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Belize, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama.

b. Coordinator: Ana Patricia Carbajal (Mexico) B. El Caribe (The Caribbean)

a. Countries: Cuba, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Jamaica, Bahamas, and all the Lesser Antilles

b. Coordinator: Maibel Troia (Venezuela/USA) C. Brazil

a. Country: Brazil

b. Coordinator: Eduardo Nóbrega (Brazil) D. Norte de Los Andes (Northern Andes)

a. Countries: Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Guyana, Surinam, and French Guiana]

b. Coordinator: María Fernanda Pereda (Venezuela) E. Cono Sur (Southern Cone)

a. Countries: Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Paraguay b. Coordinator: Oscar Escalada (Argentina)

(3)

Phase 2

Identification of working structures. That is, programs and associations that are currently working properly that could serve as departing points and/or models for other countries. We are looking at:

• professional member associations

• Universities with conducting programs

• Non-profit organizations that regularly organize workshops for conductors

• Choral organizations and ensembles (all ages)

Phase 3 (not yet started)

Identify one location in each one of the five regions that needs development and initiate coordinated efforts to create a self-sustainable development platform (perhaps based on some of the models that we find in Phase 1)

NOTES:

➢ Education was created by Fidel Castro as a system totally operated by the state and

prohibiting the operation of private institutions. Studies of choral conducting in Cuba start from the elementary school, which is designed by levels. The last two years of the elementary level, and after being selected by the teaching staff, they further prepare the children that have formal piano classes in choral techniques. All the elementary schools have their own choir and music teacher.

➢ The educational system is based on the French system and is governed by the Haiti ministry of education. More than half of its population is illiterate. 90% of their schools are private.

➢ The Jamaican Educational System is administered by the Ministry of Education. Higher education is taught by public or private institutions, where we do not find subjects related to music. Television Jamaica promotes a contest call “All together Sing”. Is Jamaica’s premier high school choir competition. Choirs compete each week for the chance to proclaim itself Jamaica’s best high school choir.

➢ The education system of Puerto Rico is integrated into the American system. There are 47 universities. University of Puerto Rico (UPR) is the main public university system of Puerto Rico and a government-owned corporation of Puerto Rico, which consists of eleven campuses.

➢ Initial interaction between Puerto Rican professionals and ACDA to try to establish a Puerto Rican chapter of ACDA (probably affiliated to the Southern Region of ACDA)

➢ Education in the Dominican Republic is provided by the state in three options: general, academic, or professional technical. The higher level comprises private institutes and

universities. Musical studies focus on the development of their popular music. Although the Ministry of Culture has two professional choirs and the elementary school of music, it has no public policy for the development of choral activities on the island.
