The NAC presents, creates, produces and co-produces performing arts programming in various streams — the NAC Orchestra, Dance, English Theatre, French Theatre, Indigenous Theatre, and Popular Music and Variety — and nurtures the next generation of audiences and artists from across Canada. The NAC is located in the National Capital Region on the unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishinaabe Nation Mandate The NAC is governed by the National Arts Centre Act, which defines its mandate as follows: to operate and maintain the Centre; to develop the performing arts in the National Capital Region; and to assist the Canada Council for the Arts in the development of the performing arts elsewhere in Canada.

Spring 2020 Lynsey Callaghan - Conductor/Educator/Scholar, Dublin “Revisiting the Kodály Concept in Irish Choral Music Education January 30, 2020 4:30 p.m. This presentation draws on personal experience to explore Zoltán Kodály’s music pedagogy and the philosophy associated with this Hungarian music educator. Following a brief overview of the music- educational reforms that were achieved by Kodály and his collaborators and students, I will outline briefly the political and cultural context in which Kodály achieved these reforms. Moving the focus to present- day Ireland, I use a range of reports and publications to summarize current music education policy and practice, and I assess Kodály’s philosophy of music education in relation to the contemporary Irish context. Finally, I present Dublin Youth Choir as a case study of an organization that had adopted and adapted Kodály’s philosophy of music education to meet the needs of contemporary Irish society. Lynsey Callaghan is an Irish conductor and educator with research interests in Kodály training and medieval musicology. She has conducted the RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra, the RTÉ Concert Orchestra, and the Ulster Orchestra. Passionate about providing opportunities for youth choral music, in 2017, Lynsey founded Dublin Youth Choir, which now comprises Chamber Choir, Youth Choir, Male Voice Choir, and Junior Choir, and is still growing! Lynsey is also the Musical Director of the Belfast Philharmonic Youth and Chamber Choirs.
