Most choirs, formed in churches, communities, schools and clubs, is composed of amateur singers. There are few studies that address the intervention with this population and studies emphasize only the immediate results of the application of vocal exercises. Objective: To determine the effects of a speech therapeutic intervention proposed by means of evaluation of speech therapists, singing teachers and amateur choristers participants, analyzing, in the pre and post intervention, the parameters of breathing, projection of the voice and vocal range in singing voice. Method: The program had the theoretical framework of ZABALA (1998), which presents a reflection on the educational practice. This research counted on the participation of ten amateur choral singers who initially responded to a questionnaire to describe the group. The singers performed voice recordings of the vocal range and a piece of song, of free choice, pre and post intervention. During six weekly meetings, the group went through a warming up program, basic knowledge of anatomy and physiology of voice applied to singing, discussions about vocal health, breathing and voice perception. The recordings were sent on a CD to six professional judges (speech therapists and singing teachers). The judges made audio perception analysis by a protocol and evaluated the breathing, projection of the voice and vocal range of the singers. Choristers, without access to the recordings, made auto-evaluation and reviewed the same parameters. Results: Judges evaluation: vocal range had more positive changes, followed by breathing and, finally, the voice projection. Statistical analysis (qui-square) showed that all the parameters were significant changes (p <0.01). When comparing the two groups of judges: speech pathologists examined the voice range profile more in line with expectations, singing teachers, the projection of the voice, and breathing presented data equivalent, statistically. The results showed that by subject, in the opinion of judges, two subjects showed improvement in all parameters examined and seven of them, at least two parameters. According to the singers report, all aspects had improved. Conclusion: the proposed intervention, which adopted an action such as posture and broad education, had positive effects in the study group and shows the need to conduct further studies to evaluate, in addition to the results pre and post intervention, the process itself, the order to enhance the work of a speech pathologist in the singing voice
