Choir Singing I

Education facts

Code: MIGEC1

Students sing in a multi-part choir. Choir singing is a form of collaborative learning, where each participant is a voice in the choir and the individual performance is strongly related to the group, the choir. Rehearsals include, among other things, voice health and voice awareness, breathing and diaphragm pressure, tone building, timbre, intonation and articulation, and repertoire knowledge, styles and singing techniques. Students develop their abilities to listen, understand and translate the conductor's instructions and musical leadership into singing. Also the ability to understand the harmonic sequence and the function of their own part in the harmony is developed. The interaction between choir leader and choir singer and between choir singers is an important element of choir singing. Musical interpretation and rendition of the chosen repertoire and musical communication in performing are emphasised. Instruction is in the form of choir rehearsals and choir performances. Students are required to prepare before each choir session.
