This book was released on 2015-07-27 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sight and Song The aim of this little volume is, as far as may be, to translate into verse what the lines and colours of certain chosen pictures sing in themselves; to express not so much what these pictures are to the poet, but rather what poetry they objectively incarnate. Such an attempt demands patient, continuous sight as pure as the gazer can refine it of theory, fancies, or his mere subjective enjoyment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Studies in Sight Singing: Selected From Second Year Music and Third Year Music of the Hollis Dann Music Course The teacher should not forget that this tone and rhythm study is only one side of the work. The development which comes from the singing of songs is vitally important. Without this, the training in music is one-sided and mechanical. Only through the proper singing of suitable songs will a love and appreciation of the beauti ful in music be awakened and cultivated. It is also by means of song that the rhythmic and tonal sense is quickened and developed. It is all-important that correct habits of tone production be acquired during the first year in school, and that the head tone which is so delightful in children's singing, shall be preserved and not allowed to deteriorate. To attain this vitally important result, the teacher must maintain the same standard in all the singing. The tone quality should be just as good for the singing of the sight reading material as for the rote songs. The teacher must have the ability to discriminate between good and bad tone production, and the Skill to eliminate bad tonal conditions.

Download or read book New American Music Reader written by Frederick Zuchtmann and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-20 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New American Music Reader: Number Four Book no. 4 completes the series of the New American Music Readers. For Elementary and High Schools - The methods of this book naturally follow those of the preceding numbers in the series, and the needs of the classes in the advanced grammar grades, namely, those of the seventh and eighth years, are fully met. It will be found also that the methods and material in the book are well adapted to work in high schools where a text-book is needed. The book has been two years in preparation, and the material has been drawn not only from the author's actual experience in teaching, but also from the experience of many leading supervisors of music in this country and in Europe. An examination of Book No. 4 will show that needed reviews in keys, rhythms and other technical details have not been neglected, and it should be noted that examples are found in all the minor keys. Nevertheless it has been deemed wise, since the greater part of needed technical work has already been thoroughly developed in the preceding books of the series, to make this, the concluding volume, one that is particularly characterized as a book of song. The work in upper grammar grades, if the previous training has been properly done, may very well largely consist of the sight reading of songs songs of a character that will interest and stimulate the pupils. It is notorious that in these years' interest is liable to fall off if the study is made too technical. Pupils enjoy good music, and no trouble is experienced in inducing them to sing if good music is presented to them. Great care should be taken to bring out aesthetic values and emotional quality in the interpretation of song. Needs of Older Boys - The chief problem in the last two years of the ele mentary course, and in high schools as well, is how to deal with boys. At this time they begin to mature, many voices are changing or about to change, and it has always been difficult to keep the boys singing until the voices have finally assumed the mature condition. It is believed that this important problem has been satisfactorily and practically solved in this book. Ample provision is made for the changing voice and for the changed voice, and the introduction of the bass clef has been treated in a new and logical way.

Download or read book The High Road of Song written by Hollis Dann and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-05-21 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The High Road of Song: Book Two, Part Songs The sine qua non of school music is, Of course, s1ng1ng. Whatever else Of musm activities may have to be omitted, no child should miss the pleas ure, the stimulation, and the training provided by joining with his fellows in song. (from Programme of Studies, Department of Education for Ontario.) The High Road of Song, Book I I provides an abundance of two and three-part song material for class singing in Grades V to VIII, and for public performance. For several reasons it is best to defer extensive part singing until the pupil has formed safe vocal habits and is able to read and sing one-part music with comparative facility. NO normal child should be allowed, much less required, to sing the lower part exclusively, though all should learn to sing a second part. Children who are inexperienced in music will find difficulty in singing one part while listening to another. Part singing is an ear problem as well as a sight-singing one. Rounds are especially useful in developing the power to sing in the presence of an other melody. The round should be sung again and again as a unison song until the children are thoroughly familiar with it; then it may be attempted as a round. At the same time, short tone drills should be given'from dicta tion or from the blackboard. At all times children should be encouraged to sing easily, without forcing the voice.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from New American Music Reader, Vol. 2 The new american music reader number Two begins the study of stad' nota tion and keys, with their proper signatures. These are introduced at intervals, giving the necessary practice in each before a new key is studied. This plan avoids the confusion experienced when many keys are introduced near together. The new rhythms are and Until 618 time is taken up, the quarter-note is continued as the unit of measurement and the beat note. The exercises and studies are founded on melody, and the songs themselves, unless designated as rote, are to be used as studies for sight-reading. All work is related to and derived from song. Thus the dictation of intervals, of rhythm and its variations, together with the studies in enu'nciation, are drawn from the songs which they precede, and lead directly to their interpretation. The child thus sees the intention, realizes the value and the practical application of this drill, and is willing to work, since his labor results in song.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Novello Music Course: Fourth Reader Each selection 111 this book is a part song. The larger in number are for Soprano, Alto and Bass, but a few in four parts are interspersed. The compass of the parts is within the range of voices found in the upper grades. The music is interesting and it is drawn from many sources. The songs of classic and modern composers, patriotic songs and the folksongs of many coun tries will be found, and these songs are set to the poems of eminent authors. It is music which has stood the test of time, and lives because of its intrinsic worth. It will live in the memories of the children to-day as it has lived in the memories of their fathers. While the songs may be sung to syllable or to some vowel sound, and thus serve for practice in sight singing and voice training, pupils should be led to appreciate the human side of the music - to catch the spirit of the words, the melodies and the harmonies. They should be brought as much as it is possible into a sympathetic understanding of the moods of the folksongs, for a folksong expresses that which is common to all. They should also study the composers, especially the classicists. They will then carry with them as they leave school, not only tech nical skill, and a taste for that which is of genuine worth, but a knowledge of music and its relation to life which will afterwards grow by a process of natural accretion.

That boy was well trained who, when asked why he did not put some pears into his pocket, for no one was there to see him, replied, Yes, I was there; and I don't ever intend to see myself do a dishonest thing!

He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.
