recommended by Jen Sper, School Choral Music Specialist

Tired of using the same old warm-up exercises with your choir every day? Roger Emerson’s “Pop Warm-Ups & Work-Outs” series is a great addition to your warm-up resources – these classic rock and pop melodies and motives help you build vocal skills while having fun! New this year:

Pop Warm-Ups & Work-Outs for Choir 2 by Roger Emerson
Following the success of “Pop Warm-Ups & Work-Outs for Guys” and “Pop Warm-Ups & Work-Outs for Choir,” this sequel includes some of the latest pop song melodies and motives to inspire students to sing with gusto and to reinforce basic choral fundamentals common to all types of music. The ten songs featured are preceded by suggestions for practicing and reinforcing skills such as breath control, ear training, vowel shapes, resonance, range extension and head voice development. The warm-ups can be used with changed or unchanged voices. Warm-ups are based on pop melodies including: “Ho Hey,” “Best Day of My Life,” “The Lion Sleeps Tonight,” “Moves Like Jagger,” “Chasing the Sun,” and more!
