Hello, fellow 1am-ers.

Oh, I'll just cut the official doodle-dongs and get straight to the point. I'm joining a choir, I'll have a test in a few days, what do I need to know? What's some "awesome" stuff to read to prepare myself.

The test will be the following :

- Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, naaaa...testing, to see which range I belong to.

- 1 song of my choice to sing.


Well, the test isn't so difficult itself but the things afterwards are, adjusting, reading notes and stuff, so any advices?

I would say do not get stuck in your head what role you will play in the choir. They will place you where they feel is suitable. Well organized choirs are like a finely tuned arrangement. If you think about it, that is exactly what they are actually. So if your role in the choir is not a lead, you still have an important part (and equal opportunity to screw up the sound lol).

Other than that I would say to concentrate on the fundamentals and listen to the guidance of the director. Oh.. and as far as voice.. don't smoke, do drugs or drink. Second-hand smoke will degrade your voice, too. You have to take care of your voice if you will participate in a choir regularly, or it will definitely be heard in your singing.

I have a baritone-bass line in the choir and I've passed the test I was required to.

I have a very awesome hearing :p.

It's a church choir btw, in a grand cathedral!
