Marleen De Boo holds Master’s degrees in both Music Pedagogy and Choral Conducting. She teaches conducting at the Royal Conservatoire of Antwerp and the Podiumacademie Lier. As a conductor, she works with a diverse range of singers—from beginners to professionals—with a special emphasis on children’s and youth choirs.
Currently, Marleen serves as the artistic director of Waelrantkoren, where she conducts five of the eight ensembles. Her approach is deeply rooted in the pedagogical power of choral singing, using music as a means to help young people discover themselves and grow through shared musical experiences.
In addition to her conducting work, Marleen is active internationally as a workshop leader, juror, and choral coach.
