It is crucial to incorporate warm-ups into a girls' choir rehearsal since it is evident that they help the overall vocal health of the voice. Maintaining overall good health through healthy habits is critical, as I will explain in the following sections.
Insufficient rest, obesity, poor nutrition and hydration, substance abuse and allergies can all lead to sicknesses that can have serious effects on the speaking and singing voice. A singer must pay close attention to the signals that his or her voice gives so that the necessary steps toward preventing problems can be taken (O’Connor, Karen. 2004). At times, a change in certain behaviours or unhealthy habits may be necessary to protect the voice from developing problems in the first place

The conductor's responsibility towards the choir in the vocal health of the members follow steps for conductors go through to ensure this are that the conductor has a responsibility towards the vocal health of them members when they are in the rehearsal (Brennan, R 2017), setting good technique for practicing songs, display and show how you would produce the best technique to apply to the song (Michaels, A 2017), phrasing or intervals and encouraging to apply this in the songs during the performance (Brennan, R 2017).
It is important to show twang, incorporate tongue twisters, make sure they aren’t grabbing the sound onset, ways to avoid vocal frying are showing the girls how to access their whole range (Michaels, A 2017), and being healthy by more aware of their individual responsibility as a choir member and listening (Brennan, R
Choir is a form of musical art. It consists of four different types of groups, and each vocal ranges from highest to lowest. The way people in choir communicate with each other is when they harmonize, they learn about one another through the emotions of a song they sing in unison. Choir is not only for people who can sing, it is
The first composition, "Miserere Mei, Deus", was produced by Gregorio Allegri in 1638. I learned this, as I read along with the well-thought-out program that was given. As we, the audience, looked up to the vocalists, we were entranced by the consuming sound. The room filled with a vibrant melody, in which the harmonization and tone color was spectacular. The emotion conveyed throughout the room was one of absorption and delight. During this piece, the sopranos hit such high notes, that I was astounded. Being a person who participates in concert choir, I understand the level of commitment and talent it takes to reach those notes and stay in tune. This ...

(*) Jack is a natural leader. He has a domineering, almost authoritarian approach to his leadership. In their first appearance in the book, the choir was a “sweaty march” (p.16) in “two parallel lines” (p.16). He was considered as “the most obvious leader” (p.17) but his “wearily obedient” (p.17) choir may suggest they followed him out of fear rather than respect for his headship. Jack claims he “ought to be chief” (p.19) just because he was a leader in the past.

"Why did she sing when she can’t even pronounce the words right? Haha that F.O.B. is so stupid!" These were the haunting words that I overheard my classmate utter to her friend as I was walking off the stage from my solo singing performance, cold sweat trickling down my face and warm tears welling up as my vision got blurry. These words remained etched in my memory as I was constantly reminded of the fact that I needed to improve my American accent to conform and assimilate into the American society.
The audition’s difficulty can vary depending on the chosen role. A lead role needs more effort in comparison to a background ensemble. Preparation is key for a successful audition. So, the night before the audition, make sure the performer’s voice is well. One can drink tea with honey in order to soothe the vocal cords. It is essential to warm the vocal cords up before going to the audition. During the audition, the auditionee must introduce himself or herself to the panel of auditioners, and state the role he or she is going for. The performer cannot allow fear to take over his or her performance, as this can affect the quality of the performance. After the audition, it is hard to predict the results because the auditioners usually show little to no reactions in order to hide what they thought of the audition. However, the auditionee can usually know or feel that he or she did
As the singing instrument is a part of our bodies, therein lies potential complications that are unique to only the voice.
On Wednesday, May 23rd, I attended the College Choir concert in the Reamer Campus Center. The choir performed a variety of songs, ranging from pieces in Latin to traditional American folksongs. Two of the pieces featured solos, and one even featured percussion instruments. Mrs. Elinore Farnum provided piano accompaniment for each of the songs, and performed beautifully. I was extremely impressed by the talented choir members and their ability to sing such a varied range of songs.
