Music for Sight Singing

The most engaging and musical Sight-Singing text on the market.

 

Music for Sight Singing is structured around organized melodiesdrawn from the literature of composed music and a wide range of the world€s folk music. Real music exercises allow readers to practice sight singing and develop their €œmind€s ear€ €“ the ability to imagine how music sounds without first playing it on an instrument.

 

The ninth edition continues to introduce a host of important musical considerations beyond pitch and rhythm- including dynamics, accents, articulations, slurs, repeat signs, and tempo markings. The book€s arrangement of simple to complex exercises lays the foundations for success.

 

 

Learning Goals

  • Effortlessly read all four common clefs.
  • Understand common musical symbols and terms.
  • Recognize and sing important harmonic features such as dominant seventh and Neapolitan chords.
