It’s so important to get the choir year started off with productive, effective rehearsals.  There’s always a lot to do, and that’s especially true at the beginning of the year.  It’s imperative that we take advantage of every single minute of rehearsal.  Not only will that help us get everything done, but that also sets the expectation for the rest of the year that using our rehearsal time productively is crucial to our success!

In Episode #73 of the podcast, Part 4 in our “Back to School Series”, I share with you 14 tips for productive, effective rehearsals.  These tips are geared towards that first week of rehearsals, but many of them will apply to all of your rehearsals moving forward.  Follow these tips, and not only will you make the best use of your rehearsal time, you’ll be teaching your singers what it means to rehearse effectively.  And that’s something that can benefit you all year long!
