AbstractThe vocal warm-up is an aspect of the choral rehearsal which is many times seenas nothing more than a brief period in which a singer in an ensemble "warms''' his or hervocal mechanism in preparation for singing. It is also considered by many to be separatefrom the review of literature to be performed. However, if a conductor plans carefullyfor the warm-up period, it can serve to teach both vocal technique and the repertoire to bereviewed. There are numerous aspects of vocal technique that should be addressedduring the choral warm-up. Among these is posture, breath, intonation, resonance,extending the vocal range, and sight-singing. Also, aspects of the repertoire should beintroduced during this time. With careful planning, a conductor can teach proper vocaltechnique and introduce choral literature fairly quickly during the warm-up process.in
