[HANASHIR:2230] adult volunteer choir

[Rachelle and Howard Shubert <shubert...>]

The first rehearsal of my adult choir went pretty well.      Oh my, it takes
much longer than I might have expected to teach a song to a group of 15-20
adults, half of whom are  strong and half of whom are weak singers.
Although I try to run my rehearsals efficiently and focus on the work at
hand,  one of my goals is to build a cohesive sense of community within the
choir.  Any words of wisdom from experienced volunteer choir choral directors?
