Description

In Episode 20 of The Choral Director’s Toolbox, guest host Dr. Jamea J. Sale, Director of the Institute for Healthy Singing & Voice Research, presents Rehearsal Design with the Voice in Mind. Learn how to structure rehearsals that balance vocal load, prevent fatigue, and promote healthy, expressive singing. This week’s listener question addresses whether humming pitches in concert is a valid substitute for using a pitch pipe. Today’s inspiration is the spirited Swedish piece Sköna Maj, performed by the New South Festival Singers at the Piccolo Spoleto Festival. Join us for a voice-savvy and musically enriching episode!
