That means that children participate voluntarily because of their being fond of singing. The aim of the paper is to defi ne how children\u2019s choir rehearsals are being organized in six different primary schools in the city of Osijek. The data were gathered in March and May 2012, by systematic observation of choir rehearsals and by a questionnaire for choir conductors. Reasarch results have shown that there is an audition for new members at the beginning of the school year. All conductors examined play an instrument at the rehearsal. Most common activities at the rehearsal are voice training (at the beginning of every rehearsal), learning and singing new songs and also repetition of songs already learned. The children enjoy singing cheerful songs in faster tempo and singing pop songs. Folk songs are not liked as much. All choirs perform in public several times during the school year which has been shown as an additional motive for attending the children\u2019s choir.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The topic of this paper is singing choir of young school-age children (from first to fourth grade \u2212 age 7 to 10\/11), which is organized as an extra-curricular activity in primary schools.
