Using Group Practice Lists

Turn a set list into a focused practice queue for each voice part

A group practice list is the practice version of a choir set list. It keeps the set list's name and song order, but only includes recordings that have been selected for the chosen voice part.

You do not create or name a separate group list. A visible set list appears as a group practice list as soon as at least one of its recordings is included for that voice part.

Choose the recordings for a group list

Owners, admins, editors, and members with permission to manage the repertoire can change group practice lists. Work through the songs in a set list and choose the most useful recording for each voice part. You can include more than one recording from the same song if that helps the choir.

    Open Repertoire, choose the set list and song, then select the voice part you want to manage.

The group list follows the set list automatically. Rename or reorder the set list if its title or song order needs to change. Personal practice lists are separate and can contain recordings from different set lists.

    Start practising

    Select the tile or its Play button. ChoirMate opens the regular audio player and follows the set list's song order.

If a group list is missing

Check that you selected the intended voice part and that at least one shared recording in the set list is included for that part. If an editor has just changed the list, refresh the page or the Practice screen.

Members who cannot manage the repertoire can play group lists but cannot change their recordings. Ask an owner, admin, editor, or another member with repertoire permission to update the list.

Info

Group practice lists are available to choir members without an individual Premium subscription. Personal practice lists are a separate Premium feature.
