Music practise planning template

This form is for planning the music practise session for a church service.

It is suitable for a choir/music director who is planning ahead, or for a small music group / ensemble who are planning on a co-operative basis.

The worksheet allows you to list the items you need to practise, and allocate times for each one. It also has timeslots for tasks and activities that often need to happen during practise time - this can help you to remember everything that needs to be done, and prompts you to allocate time for the extra tasks. It could easily be adapted to other types of church-service practises.
