n The Language of Song (26 Classic Italian,
German, French and Russian Songs)ed.
Nicola-Jane Kemp & Heidi Pegler. The ability
to sing in foreign languages is a much-needed
skill for singers, but few vocal training resources
tackle this aspect comprehensively in one book.
The Language of Song provides classic song
repertoire, carefully selected to develop the vital
skills required to sing in a foreign language. An
invaluable resource for all singing students and
teachers, each song gives both a literal and poetic
translation of each text, a detailed pronunciation
guide using the International Phonetic Alphabet
(IPA), and background information on the songs
as well as technical and musical teaching points.
The accompanying CD provides the text for each
song spoken by a native speaker - expert language
consultants who specialize in coaching singers - as
well as a recording of each song accompaniment.
Not just for those taking graded singing exams,
these are invaluable for singers of any age exploring
international song repertoire up to university and
college levels.
