The Malaysian Choral Eisteddfod
(or MCE, formerly known as the Young Singers Choral Festival) was founded in
2003 by two Malaysian choral conductors, Ms Susanna Saw (now Music Director of
the Young Choral Academy) and Mr
Mak Chi Hoe.
It aims at providing a channel
for young singers to learn, interact and perform. A growing number of choral
music enthusiasts have ever since been exposed to a wide spectrum of
international choral trends and developments. This annual event has been
instrumental in promoting choral music in Malaysia, serving as a music
educational platform. Since the MCE became international in 2009, the event has
raised attention on an even wider platform.
Choral conductors and choirs have
found the Eisteddfod in Kuala Lumpur to be a hub of choral education in the
Southeast Asian Region.
Perak Society of Performing Arts
will be organising together with the Young Choral Academy and Dana Belia the
10th Malaysian Choral Eisteddfod (MCE) Choir Competition which will include
school choirs, children's choirs, young adult choirs from this region. The aim is to provide a platform for choirs
to showcase their passion for choral singing through workshops, competition and
fellowship. With the vision to promote choral development in Malaysia,
international judges will be invited to judge the competition and give their
expert assessment to encourage the improvement of these talents.
A Total of 16 choirs will compete
in four categories.
PSPA is hopeful that it will draw
talented singers not only to participate in this competition, but to enjoy
Perak's warm hospitality and wonderful local delicacies. It will promote
fellowship among our local talents with visiting talents.
