Choir Sign Up 2022 for webpage.pdf

Form to join choir. Due by Friday, September 2.


To help the choir students practice at home some singing fundamentals, please use the following links with the following exercises. Please remember that when we sing higher, we should not feel tightening or a thinning/squeaking of our voice. If that happens, stop and wait for the exercises to come back down to a comfortable pitch. When our voice muscles get strong enough, we should feel our voice "release" into higher pitches.

Here are the links and the exercises that fit each link
