Description:  I worked with Faye Dumont for a number of years during my time living in Melbourne, Australia. As with many choral conductors, Faye Dumont has a number of favorite warmups. This piece is a sort of joke/tribute that brings together the various common warmups used in Melbourne Chamber Choir, and various other choirs run by Faye Dumont over time.


This piece is dedicated to the FDS (Faye Dumont Singers) family. It's good fun, and also useful to pull the various common vocal warmups used in choirs together in a quick sing.
