Singers will have the opportunity to virtually rehearse the first movement of ECOTORIO - The Protest' and all subsequent movements with the composers on the virtual platform Zoom, then record their parts individually that will be woven into the World Premiere virtual music video to be released in May 2022.
Each movement of ECOTORIO will be released over the next 18 months virtually, culminating in the first live performance of the entire work in Melbourne, Australia in 2022.
ECOTORIO is going to be an exciting, genre diverse and game changing musical snapshot of the current state of events, the harrowing and the hopeful. I think people everywhere are going to love singing and listening to it and we hope it brings some positive conversations around what needs to change, said the composers, Jonathon and Dave.
Once the singers have registered to participate, they will receive all the music resources to enable them to submit their individual recordings, including sheet music, rehearsal files and recording instructions, along with access to exclusive online rehearsals with the composers that will include expert professional training and the inside story' on the background of how the composers created each movement.
