Chorus & Music Room Layout Areas

Singer's Area

Seats choral ensembles so they have a clear view of the director:

• Music chairs: With straight backs ensure proper singing posture. The contoured seats keep students comfortable during practice sessions.
• Music stands: Should be height-adjustable, and sturdy enough to support chorus folders as well as sheet music.

Director's Area

Positioned so that the music teacher can be easily seen by all students in the room:

• Swivel stool: Allows the music teacher to easily move from facing the piano, to facing the singers. An armless design ensures the teacher can play the piano unhindered.
• Music-lined dry-erase board: Features a set of staff lines, making it simple for the conductor to provide musical examples to the class, or to teach aspects of beginner's music theory.
• Adjustable-height music stand: Holds the conductor's music at the appropriate height for easy viewing.
• Teacher's desk: Gives the music educator a place to plan lessons, select music, make assessments or meet with individual students.

Storage Area

Provides students with a place for bookbags and personal belongings during class, and keeps sheet music organized and easy to find:

• Lockable storage cabinet: Secures materials that may require teacher supervision. Teachers may also opt to use this cabinet to secure their personal belongings.
• Lockable music storage cabinets: Keep sheet music organized and secure.
• Open shelving: Provides a place where students can leave their bookbags and instrument cases, keeping them out of the way during practice. Shelving may also be used to store instruments, music books, metronomes or other supplies.
