How To Nurture A Sounds Good Choir

By Amy Brooks


A trainer or leader will visit a choir and wish his or her could perform at that level. This is a dilemma and desire of all singers and administrators dealing with choirs. According to experts, a sounds good choir is easy yet difficult to nurture. Here are some of the tips provided to develop and sustain a group whose performance will be outstanding.

The atmosphere where practice and singing takes place must be welcoming. It is the nature of every human being to perform better around people who are friend. The vocals of singers will respond with quality sounds. Do not allow grudges to simmer underneath. This opens the platform to singers who will always belt their best sounds.

Set rules that are to be followed by everyone. The people must arrive on time. They must carry such materials as books, pens or scores to be used. These rules provide a standard environment for all to sing. They also ensure that no one is seen to be more important or favored than others. This will enhance the harmony of your group.

Leaders and trainers must also follow the rules set by the group. If there is a threshold set for attending practice in order to perform on stage, all leaders must stick to this threshold. It will be difficult to talk about arriving for practice on time yet a leader or trainer is the last. People are wired to follow what you do more than what you say.

The trainer must polish his teaching and production skills. Members can never rise beyond their teacher. This means that beautiful sounds must first come from the teacher before they are generated by members. This begins from training where the tutor must be confident in his delivery. A trainer must prepare to deliver a flawless training session if the voices of singers are to be magnificent.

The environment used for rehearsal or performance must be comfortable and appropriate. Some trainers prefer to stand while others are comfortable when sited. Agree with singers on the mode of training so that everyone is comfortable. Choose a comfortable room that has fresh air, is lit, and has enough space. If singers are uncomfortable, their performance will be affected.

The trainer should instill a culture of care for individual voices. The voice is the primary tool when singing. If it is damaged, the quality of sound produced will be dented. Some care tips they can adapt include drinking of plenty of water, avoiding beverages with sugar and not shouting. If the vocal cords are misused, they will be damaged and lead to loss of quality.

Do not begin singing without warming up. Vocal cord muscles are similar to all other in your body. They need warming before being engaged in a strenuous exercise. The possibility of damage and potential of vocal cords that have not been warmed up is limited. Use appropriate songs and take reasonable time to warm the vocals.

Know the capacity of individual members and the entire choir. It takes time and practice to hit high notes and do technically difficult pieces. Gradually raise the potential of your group while at the same time exercising a lot of patience. A trainer determines the ultimate quality of singing by any choir.
