Education
It not only imparts professional skills but also develops critical thinking and problem-solving abilities.
The Turkish State Choir reached approximately 700 children in 2022 through the "Future in Many Voices: Children's Choir Gathering" held at the CSO Ada Ankara Main Hall, with the participation of the State Polyphonic Children's Choir and school choirs from across Turkey. In 2023, the choir performed concerts with a total of 1,500 participants of all ages during the "Republic Concerts."
In addition to educational concerts, the choir conducts seminars, discussions, and workshops to convey the qualities and harmony of polyphonic choral music to all citizens, particularly children, youth, and music educators.
On September 23, the choir met with 158 teachers from various provinces for a "Choral Music Workshop for Music Teachers" at the Historical Hall of CSO Ada Ankara. They provided seminars on choral music education, and conductor Burak Onur Erdem conducted an open rehearsal to share the nuances of choral conducting.
Conductor Burak Onur Erdem held a discussion on choral music and conducting at Sivas Cumhuriyet University on December 7, with active participation from university students.
In January, the Turkish State Choir visited a school in Ankara, and in March, they met with children and youth in Adana, where they performed an educational concert.
