Choralia provides free training aids for choir members. Donations are appreciated and they are used to develop and maintain this web site. A quota of any donation is also allocated to the payment of copyright fees for works that have been requested by some choirs but that cannot be published yet because of copyright issues. The training aids are delivered in the form of audio files, which can be either directly played on the PC, or recorded on CDs and listened using any audio CD player. It is also possible to record them on audio cassettes. Alternatively, CD’s are directly made by Choralia from the audio files and shipped via post services. www.choralia.net

PARTABILITY - We create (to order, if necessary) specialist rehearsal CDs for use by your choral society, choir or small instrumental ensemble. The idea is that singers or instrumentalists, particularly those whose sight-reading abilities are limited or still developing, can practise their own part at home with the aid of a CD designed just for this purpose, with their own notes emphasised. The musician subsequently gets more out of group rehearsals than having to rely on them as “notebashing” sessions. For more information visit www.partability.co.uk

Choral NoteBash - Rehearsal CDs and Tapes.Our CDs and tapes are designed to emphasise one particular line e.g. alto, with the other voice parts played in the background. This reduces the need for endless notebashing during precious rehearsal time. www.notebash.freeserve.co.uk

The Silvis Woodshed

In the old days a singer would hide out in the woodshed to learn his notes. Now we have tools like midi to help us along. I hope for this page to be a collection of midi files and tools to help singers learn their notes so that they can be ready to turn it into music when they go to rehearsal.
