Help CenterGetting startedFirst steps

Web + app

Welcome to cori! cori brings your choir's rehearsals, sheet music, practice recordings and communication together in one place. This guide walks you through the very first steps: setting up your account, creating or joining a choir, and getting comfortable with the main areas of the app.

Web or mobile?

You can use cori in any browser at cori.music and on the go with the iOS and Android apps. Your choir, songs and messages stay in sync across every device.

Create your account

1

Sign up

Open cori.music (or the mobile app) and choose Sign up. You can register with your email address or continue with Google or Apple.

2

Add your name and voice pitch

Tell us your name and — if you already know it — your voice pitch (soprano, alto, tenor, bass …). Your voice pitch helps cori show you the right practice tracks later on.

Create a choir or join one

What you do next depends on your role.

If you lead a choir

1

Create a choir

On the dashboard choose Create choir, give your choir a name, and you're ready to go. Whoever creates a choir automatically becomes its choir director.

2

Invite your singers

Open Choir›Invite to share an invitation link or a join code. You'll find all the details in the Inviting members guide.

If you're a singer

1

Use your choir's code or link

Your choir leadership shares a join link or a short code. Open the link, or choose Join choir and enter the code.

2

Pick your voice pitch

Select the voice pitch you sing so you immediately get the right practice tracks and sheet music.

If you have an organization access code

If you're taking part in a project like 6K UNITED!, your route isn't through a choir but through a short access code in the app — no email address needed. How that works is described in Joining with an access code.

Create a new choir or join an existing one straight from the dashboard.

The mobile home screen: your next rehearsal, exercises and setlists at a glance.

Find your way around

Once you're in a choir, these are the areas you'll use most:

Dashboard — your overview: the next rehearsal, recent activity and quick links.
Setlists — the songs and programmes you're working on. Open a song to practise it.
Calendar — rehearsals and appointments, with attendance.
Messages — choir-wide announcements, group chats and direct messages.
Drive — shared files like PDFs, recordings and documents.
Choir — members, voice pitches and choir settings.

Switching choirs

Sing in more than one choir? Use the choir switcher at the top of the sidebar to jump between them — everything (songs, messages, calendar) follows the choir you've selected.

What cori is, which devices it runs on, and how you as a choir director bring your repertoire and your choir into it.

Creating an account and logging in

Sign up for cori — with email or via Google and Apple — and log in with the same account in the app and in your browser.

Setting your voice part

You pick soprano, alto, tenor or bass when you join a choir — separately for each one. Here's how to set it and change it later.

Creating a choir

Set up a new choir, give it a name and automatically become its choir director. The referral code can only be entered while creating it.
