2026 MMEA Fall In-Service Conference

Are you a new choral director or do you have beginner-choral students in need of vocal exercises that are simple yet effective, accessible yet expansive, and usable for elementary, middle and high school choruses? Wherever you may fall, a common question you may have is “Where Do We Start?!?” In this session, we answer that question with a series of warm-ups that address vocal onset, head voice activation, ear training, vowel unification, range extensions high and low, and tongue twisters for diction and articulation. Attendees will be provided with printed descriptions of warm-up exercises and titles of recorded music.
