RSCM

As my blog name is "Singer" I thought it would be a good idea to say something about the subject. When I was first in Church choirs we had a system started by the Royal School of Church Music - hence the cryptic title, by which we progressed in stages from novice to experienced chorister.This is a world wide institution and is alive and well in New Zealand. A new phase has been stated for school and cathedral choirs called "Voice for Life" and I know of at least one school where it is being taught.It's heartening to know that young people are coming up through the system to replace, eventually, all us oldies.
