How To Draw Practical Music Rehearsal Strategies For Your Group

By Janet Moore


If there is one activity that can waste so much time it is a singing group practice. It does happen that instrumentalists will spend most of the time tuning their equipment. The different voice groups will be busy chatting with their fans on social media. Without proper Music Rehearsal Strategies, every practice session will just be a waste of time. Below are important practice tips to consider.

A practice session is just like any other activity you have carried out. Proper planning is the secret behind success. The moment you attend practice without a detailed strategy for the session, it is a sure deal that the session will not bear fruits. Always have a prior plan on the songs you want practice on that particular day. In addition, make sure you do not list too many songs.

Usually, when group members meet to practice, there is a lot of energy as they converge. Some have not seen each other for days. There is a lot of catching up to do. At the same time, team members have a lot of energy. Therefore, beginning with a prayer is a good thing. You want to calm everyone. Then proceed to do one of the songs well known to the group to release all excess energy.

Circular position is the best for conducting practice sessions. The feeling that every other team member is looking at you gives some sense of seriousness. In addition, the circular position creates a unique bond among group members. You must, however, ensure that the songs are done at low tones. You do not want group members wearing out before you have exhausted your list of songs.

Group leadership has a very big role to play towards ensuring the success of their band. Keeping everyone committed to the practice plans may not be an easy thing to do. You may, on the other hand, overcome this challenge by ensuring that every member of the group has a role in all practice sessions. Once everyone feels personally responsible, you will be surprised with improved commitment.

Understanding group members is another crucial strategy you may want to incorporate. You must always set expectations for every practice session. These should be reinforced but in a constructive manner. It should be noted that each member has different time pressure. Ensure such members get extra from the rest of the group. They should not be perceived as dragging everyone.

If you talk to any successful band, they will tell you that they have flourished because of teamwork, commitment and inclusive participation. When you are told to treat all members fairly, it does not mean treating them equal. Groups must be in a position to discern the diverse commitments, experience levels and different time schedules so that they are not too strict on such special cases.

Before you even start considering calling external experts to train members, organize the internal environment. It should give members the freedom to keep exploring their skills and nurturing them. Mistakes should therefore not be seen as failure but as a path to improvement. Always have common goals, vision and mission statements.
