Did you ever order a piece for your choir and find out at the first rehearsal that it was much harder than it sounded? You didn’t know that the bass line had so many tricky spots to trip over. We have the solution for that. Attend one of our live reading sessions. You will hear the basses sitting behind you trip over that hard part. You will notice that one of the easiest pieces in the packet is breathtakingly beautiful – something you would have overlooked without a live performance and the collective “ahhh” after the last note. You will get a hint from the conductor/composer about how to use a piece in a way that gives it a whole new life. That person sitting next to you from another church might even share with you how they did something similar that worked well for their church. Then you have a new friend.
We believe there is no substitute for a live reading session. If for no other reason, it is a joy to make beautiful music for three hours with over a hundred fine singers. We think that once you attend one of our live reading sessions, you will not want to miss another. We hear this from past attendees all the time. Contact us if you have any questions.
