Is a three-day seminar for both director and singer that will enlighten and inform participants in musical instruction. The development and uniqueness of Serbian music, both liturgical and secular, is its primary focus.

Dear Singers,

The workshop will convene Friday morning August 13, 2010 and conclude Sunday August 15th (See your Schedule of Events Sheet). Please mark your calendar with these dates.  For those arriving Thursday evening we will host a gathering in the Hospitality room at the below listed hotel.

 This year, our Workshop Committee has pulled out all the stops to make this an outstanding workshop experience for everyone. We have reserved the Church Center Hall to accommodate all of the participants. Once again we have booked the Hyatt Regency Hotel -Pittsburgh International Airport for lodging (same hotel we had for the SSF Festival two years ago). We obtained the unbelievable price of just $79 per night (plus tax) which this year also includes a Continental breakfast each morning in a designated meeting room of the hotel.  Parking for guests is $5.00 each day. You may call 724-899-1234 our group name is SSF CHORAL WORKSHOP and subtitled under  ST. EILJAH CHOIR you must ask for this our  you will not get the $79 per night rate.  Reservations must be made by JULY 22ND, 2010.

 We are excited that once again we will host the following individuals: Coordinator and Speaker - Dr. Rick Zivic DDS participating speakers are Dr. Nikola Resanovich PhD , Professor Milutin Lazich and guest speaker our very own V. Rev. Fr. Stevan Stepanov who will speak on “The  Role of the Choir and Meaning   of  Choral Responses During a Liturgy Service.

 The St. Elijah Church Choir wants you to complete and send in your registration forms immediately to assure yourself a place among the participants as well as to help us plan the lunches, dinners and entertainment for the weekend.  Deadline is July 30th and must be sent to RICK ZIVIC along with your registration fee made payable to the” SSF”.  It is our hope to make this one of the biggest and most participated Choral Workshops.  Remember this workshop is not only for those who wish to learn directing techniques but also is very informative on learning vocal techniques, sight reading music and education in choral literature.  It is our hope that you inform all of your choir members to come to “Almost Heaven Aliquippa” (had to get that in here) and join us for the 42nd Annual SSF Choral Workshop! 

If you should have any questions you may call either Rick Zivic at (440) 567-3204 or myself at (724) 777-5170 and we will be glad to assist you. Here’s hoping for a room full of participates!

 Musically yours,
