About this exposition

This artographic research project reflects experiences from a meeting between Hong Kong and Norwegian choral culture. Through interaction with young singers from both primary and secondary schools, through performing with my own instrument the Defrost Youth Choir and through teaching and lecturing, I have been given a unique opportunity to cast a reflective light on both Hong Kong and Norwegian practices. This encounter has unveiled interesting differences in pedagogy, methodology and general didactics; but also on choral ideology and performing practices. What seems to be in figure for a Hong Kong school choir teacher, may not at all be in figure for a Norwegian choir teacher. This is what really puts my own practice theory as a choir leadership educator under the microscope – assessing what actually works regardless of culture.
