Columbus Children’s Choir is delighted to have, not one, but two choirs performing at this year’s Organization of American Kodály Educators conference held at the Hyatt Regency! The New World Singers will be performing at 8:15PM on Thursday, March 21st and the Pinta choir will be performing at 12:00pm on Saturday, March 23rd. The New World Singers concert is in the Regency Ballroom and is free and open to the public!
So what is the Organization of American Kodály Educators, or OAKE, and why are we so excited to be a part of this year’s national conference? Well, OAKE is the foremost association of American Kodály educators with the mission to support music education of the highest quality, promote universal music literacy and lifelong music making. Each year, they hold a national conference and this year it is being held right here is Columbus. So if the city seems a little more musical next week, it’s not your imagination. We are being invaded by the finest American artist teachers!
