Voice for Life
Choral Training from the
Royal School of Church Music
“Voice for Life is to be welcomed by anyone who cares about
the future of singing.”
— Malcolm Goldring
Chief Executive, youngchoirs.net
The Royal School of Church Music’s acclaimed and indispensable
guide to training choirs and singers of all ages and
abilities is completely revised and updated. The Choir
Trainer’s Book and the accompanying Singer’s Workbooks:
• Provide a structured guide to vocal training.
• Are based on graded targets with informal assessment.
• Contain supporting resources for use by school,
church, and community choirs.
• Promote ease of use with simple layouts and clear instructions.
“A church or a school without a choir is like a body without a soul. Singing lies at the heart of
worship and education. Voice for Life has a valuable part to play in giving life and soul to us all
as we worship and learn.”
—John Rutter, composer and conductor
