046. The Think System--Twelve Strategies for Using Audiation with Your Choir


Listen Later

Think back to your college days--remember Edwin Gordon?  The guy that came up with Music Learning Theory?  Well, in case you missed it (or blocked it out), his work has formed much of the processes and strategies that we use to help our singers learn music.  And much of his work focused on the concept of audiation.

In Episode 46 of the podcast, I share with you twelve strategies that I have used to incorporate audiation into my choir rehearsals.  These strategies have not only improved focus and intonation in my ensembles, they are also a lot of fun! 

Have questions about how to use audiation in your rehearsals? I'd love to help!  Send me an email at:

If you are looking for fresh rehearsal techniques (like the ones I talk about in this episode), and you'd like to get access to dozens of rubrics, templates, repertoire lists, handouts and project ideas, as well as online workshops and an awesome online collaborative community of choir directors, then you need to check out the Choir Director Corner Community Membership!  You can find it over at:
