Celebrated conductor-composer-educator Brian Tate invites everyone to sign up for any or all of his four public workshops in the run-up to the Raise the Roof concert at the Isabel Bader on June 8. Whether amateur, professional, teacher, student or simply a lover of choral music, workshop participants will improve their performance, their appreciation of choral concerts, and will experience choir master classes. The workshops are also a perfect opportunity to take home some of Mr. Tate’s award-winning scores.

His programs include the use of musical improvisation to enhance leadership and teams, and using the voice as a tool for personal development. Brian brings spontaneity, humour, and originality into all of his presentations.

Celebrated Canadian conductor-composer-educator Brian Tate, in his first Kingston appearance, brings his triple threat artistry to The Isabel in Kingston, Saturday 8 June, 7:30pm, for one show only. However, because Kingston is so well-known as a “choir city,” Mr. Tate will also lead four public workshops and vocal clinics in the days leading up to the show.

The concert itself is so big it is called, “Raise the Roof !” Three choirs will perform together onstage, 170 voices in all, including Open Voices Community Choir (Andy Rush, Director), “She Sings!” (Martha Hill Duncan, Director), and The Kingston Youth Choir (Emily McPherson, Director). The compositions feature up to eight parts, with looping and counterpoint, big sound, and delicate weavings. Brian Tate’s concert is sponsored by The Ballytobin Foundation, supporting arts and culture in Kingston. Tickets and information: $22 from The Isabel Box Office, 390 King St. West, Kingston, M-F 12:30-4:30 pm, 613-533-2424 and online ihttps://www.queensu.ca/theisabel/performances/other-performances/raise-r
