In no particular order, these are the qualities that I believe make for an ideal choir member: punctuality It takes a while to build up a safe, creative atmosphere, but only a second to destroy it. If we’re doing some focused warm up work, we don’t want people wandering in half way through! I know some people get stuck in traffic or have to come straight from work, but persistent latecomers aren’t showing respect for their fellow choir members (or the work or the choir), and are often the ones who would benefit most from the voice training and stress-busting warm up!

1. Do lip or tongue trills in the morning (try it in the shower or on your drive to work) to facilitate better use of airflow and breath. 2. Perform gentle humming and cooing to warm up your voice in the morning. 3. If you do more vocally complex warm-ups too, such as vocal scales, do the simple warm-ups first. 4. Repeat these exercises throughout the day to reduce muscular tension in the neck, shoulders and jaw. 5. At the end of the day, perform a cool-down of the voice with similar vocal tasks.

Music directing in its simplest form, I feel, is like driving on a road and navigating through traffic intersections. An effective music director, or MD, takes initiative and plans ahead, not leaving many things to chance or reacting at the last second. They are aware of what is musically going on around them, and have the ability to anticipate and help guide the band through the vulnerable areas of a set with minimal chaos and confusion! The role of the music director basically came about with the need for better communication between the players on stage. However, as our services became more creatively involved on and off the platform, the importance of the MD grew over time. With this in mind, here are a few thoughts that could really help music directors when approaching your next church
