This study aimed to explore children’s choir conductors’ perspectives on the virtual format their children’s choirs were forced to adapt to during severe restrictions imposed by the Covid-19 pandemic in South Africa. The literature review revealed that choir conductors and choristers across the globe had to adapt to rehearsing and performing in the virtual realm. A qualitative research approach utilising a collective case study design was employed. Through purposive sampling, four conductors of children’s choirs in South Africa were selected, with whom online semi-structured interviews were held. Additionally, participants were asked to complete an open-ended questionnaire to provide further data, allowing an in-depth and detailed understanding of their perspectives to be developed.
