One day, while the Clappy Trio was performing on a street corner, one of the members saw another group nearby, a chorus that just couldn't get their act together, because the third member was so nervous that he couldn't stop singing out of turn. The clappy member decided to leave the Clappy Trio with consent from his colleagues<ref>[[Reading Material (Rhythm Heaven)#Leader's Notes|リーダーの手記]] (Leader's Notes), ''[[Rhythm Tengoku Gold]]''</ref> and take the chorus under his wing as their conductor, but he claims to be just there to help them along as "They're the stars, and I try to stay out of their way."<ref>[[Reading Material (Rhythm Heaven)#Leader's Notes|Leader's Notes]], ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]''</ref>

*The information given in the [[Rhythm Item]]s is generally consistent across languages, but some alter certain details. For example,  the Japanese and Korean versions say the Conductor uses his baton to eat snacks he dropped on the floor<ref>"せなかがカユイからって、首の後ろからあのぼうをツッコむの、やめてほしい!あと、おやつをゆかにおっことしちゃったからって、あのぼうをつかってひろうのも、やめてほしい!ボクも、あのべんりなぼうがほしい!"

Actually, I want this convenient stick too!) ~ [[Baton|タクト]] (Tact), ''[[Rhythm Tengoku: The Best+]]''</ref>, while the French version says he also uses the baton as a toothpick and that he likes to eat sushi<ref name="French">"Je préfèrerais que mon chef de chorale arrête de s'en servir comme cure-dent, comme gratte-dos ou pour manger ses sushis... On trouve parfois de ces trucs collés dessus..." (I'd rather my choirmaster stop using it as a toothpick, as a back scratcher or to eat his sushi... We sometimes find this stuff stuck on it...) ~ [[Baton|Baguette d'orchestre]] (Orchestral baton), ''[[Rhythm Paradise Megamix]]''</ref>. This detail goes along with the added detail that [[The Clappy Trio (Characters)|the Clappy Trio]] likes to eat spaghetti bolognese<ref>"Le cachet de nos 42 concerts précédents est parti dans ces nouveaux costumes hyper-classe.

*During the [[Glee Club 2|Glee Club]] Song in the [[Guitar Lessons]], [[J.J. Rocker]] at one point wonders why the Glee Club conductor never moves. While he does stand completely still in ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'', a new cue was added in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', which has the conductor waves his baton to signal to the Chorus Kids when to stop in unison.

*There was a [https://www.ssbwiki.com/Gematsu_leaks widely spread leak] that claimed that the Chorus Kids would become playable characters in [[Super Smash Bros.|Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/for Wii U]]. Even though the leak predicted 9 out of 11 characters correctly, the Chorus Kids didn't join the playable roster, meaning that either that part of the leak was false, or the Chorus Kids were scrapped during development.
