Camp A Cappella 08
A 2-day music camp that will work with a cappella singers new and current to ‘transpose’ them from the stoic choral singer to an enlivened singer, full of inspiration, commitment and confidence who will bring that energy back to school choirs and more!
This camp will serve to help all singers, choral or not to appreciate pop and jazz a cappella in a whole new way. We aim to showcase to singers the differences and more importantly the similarities in singing techniques in a cappella versus choral performance. This camp will also touch on the wide array of skill sets unique to a cappella singing & performance.
15 June (adults) 9am - 5pm, Telok Ayer Performing Arts Centre
16-17 June (students) 9am - 5pm, SMU arts & culture centre

A Cappella Championships 08
The Aca Champs, as it is endearingly known as, is a programme that aims to provide positive reinforcement for all participating groups through positive feedback, encouragement and non-political support for all groups.
It also serves as an annual testing ground for local and new pop / jazz a cappella groups to compete against one another in a friendly environment, winning prizes that would enable them to reach more performance platforms and opportunities through the society. A new category this year extends the competition to choirs and vocal ensembles.
It has over the last 7 years become THE annual a cappella competition which singers look forward to attending and competing in, allowing them to watch and learn from other teams and for them to access for themselves, the development of standards across the categories each year. The inclusion of international groups raises the standard of the competition and A Cappella in Singapore .
