021. Five of my Favorite Choir Warm-Ups for Teaching Vocal Technique


Listen Later

In my world, it’s absolutely essential that I teach vocal technique in rehearsal.  Singers have so many demands on their time, it seems that I have fewer and fewer students each year who study voice privately.  For most of my singers, I am the only voice teacher they will ever have.

And for choir directors looking to save time, using warm-ups to teach vocal technique can pay off in spades: your singers get their voices ready for the rehearsal, and you now have concepts that you can relate back to when you are in the middle of rehearsal working on repertoire. 

In today's episode, I share five of my favorite warm-ups for teaching vocal technique.  If you like these and would like to more, I have a free video workshop: "My Ten Favorite Choir Warm-Ups for Teaching Vocal Technique!"  You can get access to that workshop, as well as a PDF of the warm-ups included, HERE.
