Rehearsal goes further when every member arrives knowing what will be sung, in what order and with which arrangement. Preparing that ahead of time is the coordinator's job, but it benefits everyone.

Share the setlist in advance

Publish the service songs in the program several days ahead. Every singer and musician can go over them at home.

Notes that travel with the song

Performance cues («piano comes in alone», «repeat the chorus twice», «soft ending») work better when they are written next to the lyrics than when they are said once at rehearsal.

Rehearse with what you'll see on Sunday

If rehearsal uses the same virtual music stand as the service, there are no surprises on the day: the lyrics, the order and the notes are exactly the same.
