Ever wonder what you should be writing into your sheet music during rehearsal?
When I’m music directing a show, I have a very specific list of things I want singers to write down in their score. These are stylistic choices that go beyond what’s written on the page, and when everyone performs them as a unified ensemble, the music elevates to another level of nuance and professionalism.
But, what exactly are these “things” I’m telling them to write down?
Friend, let me tell you!
Today, I’m sharing nine essential music markings you should be writing in your score during every rehearsal!
Some of these markings are basic and others involve higher level musical analysis. But, ALL of them are integral to helping you:
- Learn a song with precision and accuracy
- Perform musical phrases with consistent interpretation choices
- Sing in tune with other singers
- Elevate your ensemble singing skills
- And improve how you communicate with your music director and accompanists
If you want to learn your music faster and with greater detail and nuance, then this episode is for you.
Grab a pen and paper, and let’s go!
