Singing is an integral part of any music classroom, but the voice works differently than other instruments and needs its own specific teaching strategies. Whether you’re an instrumentalist who finds yourself teaching choir, or a vocalist who is already an expert singer, this book can make your time in the classroom more rewarding and successful. Beginning with the principle that you should use your own voice as a singing example — even if it’s not perfect — this book presents all the skills your singers need to learn, including posture, diction, pitch, notation, and more. Each chapter offers a clear overview of a singing goal, then lists several strategies you can use to achieve it with your group. The final sections of the book address more philosophical aspects of choral pedagogy- such as creating a "choral culture," choosing repertoire, and self-care for teachers.Book, 86 pages.
