LEO sings !
Diversity of Singing Practices in Europe
(DSPE)
Presentation : Stéphane Grosclaude (Plate-forme interrégionale - France)
Géraldine Toutain (Liaisons Arts Bourgogne – France)
How do we sing in Europe? How do we teach singing? What do we sing? Taking as a starting point the idea that the exchanges, the confrontations of viewpoints, techniques and repertoires make people and practices evolve, 5 countries and 8 partners have joined together in the two-year cooperation project LEO sings!. More than an artistic practice, the voice is a social and cultural indicator that displays the development of societies.
THE PROJECT
Collecting and sharing the diversity of European singing practice through exchange, training, documentation and dissemination of diverse European singing experiences, including the study of multiple singing cultures and non-formal training programmes at all levels and for specific target groups (choral conductors, solo and choir singers, singing teachers…) of all vocal styles, with the goal of enriching local practice by learning from each other, and encouraging a European-wide exchange of current practices.

Singing in school Singing in music school Singing at university and professional levels Building bridges between professional and
amateurs Study visits (in schools and music schools) and
observation of rehearsals of different choirs
Singing in school
Collective singing practices in school is determined by :
- Community- Media- Policy
Elements of tension identified in this context :intrinsic value of community singing vs community singing having an instrumental impact on other areas degree to which opportunities for community singing were universal or restricted capacity of community singing policies, schemes and opportunities to evolve
Singing in Music school
Observations:-Existing diversity in the European landscape of singing at music schools, resulting from different national traditions, and diversity within countries, -Resulted from bottom-up processes,-Younger generations are demanding more opportunities,
Questions: -How to adapt the supply of music education to changing tastes? -The role of music schools as mediators or facilitators of quality music education,-How to ensure accessibility for all ?-The transfer of good practices
Singing at University &
professionnal levelIncreasingly complex definition of the profile of a music teacher
What extent universities are able to cater for these complex needs ?Singers could be able to develop a career in a variety of professional contexts Consider the role of coaches and other professionals providing insight and guidance into new career routes, as well as the design of further education programmes adapted to these emerging opportunities (mapping exercise of diverse career paths for professional singers )
