Why bother warming up?

Chris Rowbury has a great post on warming up your choir that includes this observation:

No matter how long the warm up is, I can be sure of the following:

* some people will think the warm up is too long, while others will think it's not long enough;
* some people will think it's a waste of time, while some will think it's an invaluable and important part of being in the choir;
* some people will love one particular exercise, while others will simply hate it.

So you can't win whatever you do!
