Team Harmony with E Choir
Warming Up
November 15, 2020
Celebrate your creativity by creating team harmony through the power of music. The E Choir experience will give your team confidence and be truly uplifting!
Perform as One Team
Unite Your People Using Music, Virtually.
E Choir is the ultimate team event – Choirs are not about singing at the same time, but about singing together.
E choir knows no limits, it could be for a small team, the whole department, or the entire company to take part in! Run-on Zoom (or another conference platform), no additional equipment is needed other than a laptop and a mobile phone.
Introductions: Welcome and Vocal Warm-Up: Host and vocal coach Billie Godfrey welcome all participants as they join the Zoom event with a friendly and personalized introduction to how the experience will unfold.
Preparation: Learn to sing melody & harmony: “Stand By Me” Billie will coach everyone through the structure and phrasing of the melody, along with tips on breathing and delivery. Once the melody has been learned, Billie will demonstrate and coach participants through the three-part harmony for this song.
Pause: (and breathe!) Billie will invite all participants to open their mics for a short time. Informal comments, feedback, any questions, and a sense of connectivity is enabled in this way. Billie will then re-mute all mics, ready for the final sing-through!
Performance! Ready to sing!! After a short summary Billie will invite all participants to perform! Options here include self-filming on a mobile device to keep as a memento, share with other participants, or upload on licensed social platforms (eg YouTube).
Conclusion: Billie will open all mics directly after the performance to enable a shared round of applause! This will give participants a sense of achievement and a real sense of a shared uplifting event. After positive feedback and an invitation for all to express their experiences, Billie will congratulate all participants and close the session.

Amazing! The event was a HUGE success! Everything was perfect – the participants thoroughly enjoyed themselves. I can’t say enough about how well it went. The word is already flying around the office about the success of the program and we already have another group thinking about using this program for an event of their own!
I have to say Kevin was absolutely OUTSTANDING. He is truly gifted in his presentation, engagement of the people, he’s funny and everyone just raved over him—top notch!
WOW! What an incredible time we had with Team Bonding last week at our All Hands event! Your team was phenomenal, and with the leadership and charisma of Scott, pulled off keeping the attentions of a very lively crowd!

The hunt was a huge success!!

Michael and his team did a terrific job facilitating and the whole event went very smoothly.
