MISSION TO EXPERIENCE

Choral Clinic

Focused ensemble coaching for the season ahead.

A practical, musical rehearsal experience designed to strengthen ensemble sound, vocal coordination, diction, phrasing, musicianship, and performance readiness before holiday concerts, services, and seasonal programs.

Ensemble tone and blend

Refining the collective sound to achieve a unified and resonant ensemble identity.

Phrasing and musical expression

Elevating the musical narrative through sensitive shaping and dynamic storytelling.

Performance preparation and confidence

Instilling the poise and readiness needed for polished holiday concert presentations.

How It Works

Rebecca comes into an existing rehearsal and works with the choir on the repertoire already being prepared. The clinic is designed to strengthen the ensemble without requiring the organization to redesign its rehearsal schedule or season.

What We Can Work On

Flexible focus areas tailored to the specific vocal and musical goals of each ensemble.

Breath coordination and vocal production

Practical techniques for healthy vocalism and efficient airflow during seasonal repertoire.

Balance and ensemble listening

Developing critical ears to ensure internal balance across all choral sections.

Diction and text clarity

Mastering vowel shapes and consonant crispness to ensure every word reaches the audience.

Difficult passages and problem spots

Targeted problem-solving for those stubborn rhythmic or pitch challenges in your score.

90-Minute Clinic

Focused rehearsal coaching for targeted musical and vocal priorities.

2-Hour Clinic

Deeper work on ensemble sound, musicianship, interpretation, and challenging repertoire.

Half-Day Intensive

Extended coaching for ensembles preparing larger programs or multiple selections.

Who It’s For

Designed for community choirs, church choirs, civic ensembles, professional and semi-professional groups, and other adult vocal ensembles preparing seasonal performances.
