Bob Chilcott returns as Guest Conductor/Clinician
PICCFEST 2008:

Regarded as one of the most sought after youth choir festival conductors in the world, Bob Chilcott is also one of the most prolific composers of choral music in England today.

 

He has been involved in choral music for most of his life, first as a chorister and choral scholar at King’s College, Cambridge, and for twelve years as a member of the vocal group The King’s Singers. Since 1997 he has worked as a full-time composer and has written a wide variety of choral music, including a significant amount of music for young choirs. He has over one hundred pieces published by Oxford University Press, and a number of his choral works have been published in German, Swedish, Norwegian, and Slovenian.
