If we work collaborative as a group and be responsible towards our own development as a chorist, we shall succeed (besides, the arrangement is a very simple one).
These are the topics that I planned to go briefly during lessons:
Singing:
- Breathing (keep it natural and fluid)
- Tone quality (close to speech level)
- Intonation (nobody is tone deaf, we will look at some strategies to develop and improve intonation in particular cases - if applicable)
- Section rehearsal (isolated practice within a group section)
- Maintaining a part wile rehearsing (soprano & alto, tenor & bass; full choir practice)
Score reading:
- Score overview
- Tempo markings
- Choir staff
- Accidentals
- Time signature
- Rehearsal marks
- Reading notes
- Phrasing
- Breathing marks
- Repeats
These are the resources we will be using in lessons:
