Greetings!

On behalf of the Founding Committee Volunteers, welcome to the Arab Choral Network! Whether you are a representative or a choir or choral association, a choral singer, a choral conductor, an interested member of the public, we are delighted that you want to join us.

Despite a rich and diverse choral community in the Arab World, there has until now been no regional choral organization that connects us all together. We see the Arab Choral Network filling this gap, connecting a like-minded community of choral music lovers across the region.

Internationally, choral associations and organizations serve a major role: strengthening choral communities; linking choirs together for joint projects, exchanges and events; helping with recruitment of new singers and spreading awareness of choral singing; promoting events and concerts; and reaching out to, and growing audiences. 

We are targeting choirs/singing groups in the Arabic countries and diaspora, composers and arrangers, conductors, institutions with choral/singing programs, national choral associations, choral festival organizers, audiences.

What membership in the Arab Choral Network offers you...

  1. On our website you (Choir/Individual/Organization) will be able to share a logo and images, contact information, website links, and a 300-word introduction to your group.
  2. You will be able to advertise your choir's upcoming concerts and events.
  3. You will be able to share with other ACN members information regarding tours, visiting choral experts, workshop opportunities, festivals, competitions, and any other choral related news.
  4. We are building an online database of Arab choral music and arrangements that can be accessed and shared by members.
  5. We hope to offer more services to our members as the network grows, and we welcome your input in determining how to best serve the needs of our membership.

We are not charging any membership fees at this time. Once we have set up a system for members to elect a representative Board of Directors, there may be a small membership fee to cover administrative costs. Any introduction of membership fees would be announced well in advance of implementation and only AFTER a Board is elected.

Currently we are...

  1. Operating an Arabic and English language website where members can advertise, connect, share, etc.
  2. Reaching out to affiliate with international choral organizations, such as the International Federation of Choral Music (IFCM).
  3. Working with the Qatar National Choral Association to organize and promote the 13th World Symposium on Choral Music to be held in Doha in 2023.
  4. Looking to establish regional events that could showcase our choirs, promote regional choral works, and highlight choral singing in the Arab World.
  5. And most importantly, we are actively recruiting choirs from across the Arab world and diaspora. Your participation would greatly add to the vibrancy of this community.  

In order to register as a choir/individual/organisation and provide the necessary information, you will need to complete the membership form on our website:

We sincerely hope that you and your choir will join us in this project. We look forward to working with you as we bring together voices in song across the Arab World.

Sincerely,

The ACN Committee Volunteers
