The OV Essential Choral (OVEC) Program

The OV Essential Choral Program uses a unique system to ensure it meets the required standard. This program evolved from leisurely activity to semi-skill learning to track the development of each of the singers. The program uses a significant skill-based learning system to assist the progressive development that will make choral learning systematic while retaining the fun and leisurely elements. Successful completion denotes effort in fundamental skills to equip one’s ability towards the advanced level.
