PhilBanda holds Band Conducting Workshop at the CCP

Herminigildo Ranera conducts PhilBanda

The Philippine Band Association (PhilBanda) and the Cultural Center of the Philippines announces the CCP-PhilBanda Band Conducting Workshop, a one-day intensive training program for symphonic band conductors happening on October 20, 2012 from 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM at the CCP’s Silangan Hall.

The workshop will be conducted by Olivier Ochanine, music director and principal conductor of the Philippine Philharmonic Orchestra and Herminigildo Ranera, associate conductor of the PPO and founder and president of PhilBanda. With the intent to develop the skills in the art of conducting, the workshop module will consist of symphonic band conducting essentials, leadership skills enhancement, rehearsal techniques, score preparation, and actual band conducting with the participation of a laboratory band.

The workshop is open to all band conductors and enthusiasts from all over the country. Due to time constraints, only ten (10) band conductors will be chosen to conduct the laboratory band: five from Metro Manila, and five from the regions.

Those who are interested to attend may fill-out the application form (downloadable at the CCP website www.culturalcenter.gov.ph), and submit it to ccp.artist.training@gmail.com on or before October 5, 2012. A registration fee of P500 is required from the ten chosen conducting participants, and P300 for observers. Accepted applicants will be notified on October 12, 2012.
