Choral Singing. Histories and Practices
Geisler, Ursula LU and Johansson, Karin LU (2014)- Abstract
- Choral practice can be seen as a field of simultaneous (re)presentation,
(re)production and (re)creation. These three aspects and discourses interact

at the same time as it is conceived as an individual source of

International Conference on the
Concepts and Practices of Choral Singing which was held in Lund, Sweden, in
October 2012. Thematically, these cover relevant choral topics from
the 19th century until today. This is usually regarded as the time scope
during which the secular choral practice of today has developed. However,
some written sources bear witness of choral practices that can be traced
back to the times of antique tragedy. (Less)
