How Voice & Singing works in SkillScorer
Score
Each performer in a ensemble is scored on the Voice & Singing skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.
Compare
Rank performers, compare two side by side, or compare your ensembles against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.
Track
Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which Voice & Singing skills need attention. Reports also follow each section leader's ensemble.

How are performers scored in Voice & Singing?
Every performer is scored from 1 to 10 on each skill (1 = Poor, 5 = Average, 10 = Elite), one ensemble and year at a time. Scores autosave in the Skills Matrix, and the 18 built-in reports turn them into rankings, radar charts, skill gaps and year-on-year trends.
Which levels come with Voice & Singing?
Voice & Singing starts with these levels (called “Grade” in the app): Beginner, Grade 1-2, Grade 3-4, Grade 5-6, Grade 7-8 and Advanced. They are just a starting point, so you can rename, reorder or replace them.
Can I change the Voice & Singing skills and wording?
Yes. The skills, levels and labels are all editable per organisation. In music & performing arts the app talks about performers, ensembles and section leaders, and you can change any of those words too.
