In recent decades, cognitive neuroscience research has increased
our understanding of how the brain learns, retains, and recalls
information. At the same time, social psychologists have developed
insights into group dynamics, exploring what motivates individuals
in a group to give their full effort, or conversely, what might
instead inspire them to become free loaders. Art and Science in the
Choral Rehearsal explores the idea that choral conductors who
better understand how the brain learns, and how individuals within
groups function, can lead more efficient, productive, and enjoyable
rehearsals. Armed with this knowledge, conductors can create
rehearsal techniques which take advantage of certain fundamental
brain and social psychology principles. Through such approaches,
singers will become increasingly engaged physically and mentally in
the rehearsal process. Art and Science in the Choral Rehearsal
draws from a range of scientific studies to suggest and encourage
effective, evidence-based techniques, and can help serve to reset
and inspire new approaches toward teaching. Each chapter outlines
exercises and creative ideas for conductors and music teachers,
including the importance of embedding problem solving into
rehearsal, the use of multiple entry points for newly acquired
information, techniques to encourage an emotional connection to the
music, and ways to incorporate writing exercises into rehearsal.
Additional topics include brain-compatible teaching strategies to
complement thorough score study, the science behind motivation, the
role imagination plays in teaching, the psychology of rehearsal,
and conducting tips and advice. All of these brain-friendly
strategies serve to encourage singers' active participation in
rehearsals, with the goal of motivating beautiful, inspired, and
memorable performances.
