In response to the success of The Choral Warm-Up: Core Vocal Exercises, teachers and conductors have been requesting more exercises to expand the modal breadth of the series.
The Choral Warm-Up: Modal Exercises book and accompaniment CD, written and recorded by Roger Ames, a leading choral composer, contains 22 exercises designed to prepare the choir to be introduced to a mode.
James Jordan also writes a comprehensive introduction on the efficient use of these modal warm-up exercises.
Choir directors will find these exercises to be a key component in their quest to improve the musicianship and vocalism of their singers.
