Kelas Show Choir di Petaling Jaya, Malaysia

Apakah itu Show Choir?

Anda mungkin pernah mendengar perkataan Show Choir atau mungkin anda pernah menonton siri TV yang terkenal GLEE, atau mungkin anda pernah terlihat poster atau promosi kami, tetapi adakah anda tahu apakah itu Show Choir?


Susunan yang menarik, tarian yang serentak, melodi dan harmoni yang cukup sempurna, dan acapkali dengan beberapa gabungan atau medley lagu. Inilah dunia Show Choir masa kini. Di Amerika, tradisi ini telah begitu lama di praktikkan namun di Malaysia, ia masih satu konsep yang baru.


Penerangan yang paling mudah untuk mendefinisikan Show Choir adalah ia adalah permulaan bagi teater muzikal. Sebagai ahli Show Choir anda akan dilatih untuk menyanyi, menari dan berlakon. Tidak seperti koir traditional yang menggunakan gerak tari yang minimal atau tanpa sebarang gerak tari, ahli Show Choir perlulah bersedia untuk melakukan gerak tari sepenuhnya yang seringkali mengikut tema atau jalan cerita tersendiri. Dan apa yang lebih menarik, sedang mereka menari, mereka juga perlu memastikan untuk menyanyi sama seperti, malahan adakalanya lebih baik dari koir tradisi.

Ahli Show Choir perlu bekerjasama untuk menghasilkan keharmonian bukan sahaja pada nyanyian tetapi juga pada pergerakan dan gerak tari mereka. Tetapi, apa yang lebih penting kepada suatu persembahan Show Choir, ada lah prosesnya itu sendiri. Pengalaman dalam Show Choir akan meningkatkan keyakinan diri serta menggalakkan kerjasama berkumpulan.



Show Choir bermula di Amerika Syarikat pada pertengahan 1960an meskipun sejarawan budaya tidak dapat mengenal pasti tarikh dan lokasi untuk kumpulan Show Choir yang pertama. Dua kumpulan persembahan yang mengembara, bermula dengan  The Young Americans pada 1962 dan diikuti dengan Up with People pada 1968, mengembara ke seluruh negara dalam tahun 1960an dan 1970an denagn konsep Show Choir. Apabila pelajar dan pengarah melihat persembahan ini, mereka pula memulakan kumpulan yang serupa di sekolah tinggi masing-masing.

SHOW CHOIR in KL, Malaysia

What is Show Choir?

You may have heard of the word show choir from the popular TV series "GLEE". Or you may have seen some posters or promotion by Broadway Academy regarding this said class. But do you know what is show choir?

Show Choir program at Broadway Academy

Catchy arrangements. Synchronized dance moves. Melodies and harmonies drilled to perfection. Maybe a mash up or two. This is the world of show choir today. A long-standing tradition in the U.S, but a very young and fresh concept in Malaysia.


Glee Spectacular: Tribute to Finn Hudson

Simplest way to explain it is that it is the basics to Musical Theater. Being in a Show Choir trains you to became a Triple Threat - to be able to Sing, Dance and Act. Unlike the traditional choir or a concert choir which usually do simple or no choreography/movement or steps , Show Choir involves a full on choreography sometimes based on specific story or theme. And yes, these people are also required to be able to sing just as good (or even better) as the traditional choir group.

Performers have to work together to blend harmonies, not only in song but also in tightly choreographed movement. But more important than the performance is the process: the experience of participating in show choir raises self-confidence and encourages teamwork.


Spectacular! Spectacular! Featuring songs from Bruno Mars Hitmaker, New York New York, GLEE, Mamma Mia and many more

Sensations Show Choir Team with theme Wicked!

When A Hero Sings 

A Thousand and One Night: The Epic Journey of Ramayana

Heart and Soul: Featuring songs from Matilda, Les Mis and many more. 

Show choir traces its origins as an activity in the United States to the mid-1960s, though cultural historians have been unable to determine the date and location of the first “true” show choir group. Two groups of touring performers, starting with The Young Americans in 1962 and followed by Up with People in 1968, traveled extensively throughout the country in the 1960s and 1970s, performing what could be called the show choir concept. When students and directors of the day saw these organizations, they would, in turn, start similar groups at their high schools.
