Hello LGM family,
I'm the church musician as well as the "interim choir director" for the Youth Choir at my church.
The former choir directtress was dismissed from her position because of her wanting to cause drama with me and within the choir. After her termination, about 6 of her relatives decided to stop singing as well. Im having a difficult time getting the youth choir members ,who are in the age range from 8yr- 25yr, to sing out loud during a service.
Whenever they sing during a service,some people in the audience state that they cannot hear them. Be reminded that the mics are good and the music isn't too loud. I work so hard for this choir, and Im so frustrated;
therefore, if someone who works with a youth choir or youths groups, would give me some good tips as to how to get more volume from their voices as well as some tips for getting them more motivated to sing, I would appreciate it ALOT! . .
In closing, I'm thinking about offering some rewards such as outings to the movies, restaurants, etc in order to get more volume from them.
Thank yall in advance for your concern about this situation.
God Bless!
God Bless!
