24th Annual Russian Orthodox Church
Musicians' Conference
Developing and Strengthening the Musical Tradition of Your Church Choir
St Andrew's Russian Orthodox Church
St Petersburg, Florida
October 7 - 11, 2015
The ROCM Conferences bring together choir members and conductors of all levels of experience to explore the wealth and beauty of Russian Orthodox church music. Participants will gain practical and theoretical knowledge and experience through lectures, workshops and rehearsals which culminate in festive pontifical services.
This year's conference will focus on choral tradition in the Russian Orthodox Church: developing it where it is just starting to bloom, and strengthening it where it is already blossoming. Throughout the three-day program, an exciting blend of historical, theoretical, and practical considerations will assist Orthodox conductors and singers in examining, learning about, and putting into action what ought to be one of the main concerns in every parish choir. Participation by clergy is especially encouraged and welcome.
Registration is now open!
