H Patterns of Sound—Joyce Eilers & Emily Crocker. This is a powerful,
effective sight-reading method for elementary and early middle school
treble voices. The concepts of rhythm and pitch are introduced
separately at the beginning, but always within the context of measures
so that exercises are musically interesting. Exercises that illustrate
and reinforce each concept are combinable, so harmonic interest
is introduced at an early stage, building rhythmic independence and
better intonation. The result? Painless part singing. One of the most
important features of this method is the inclusion of actual songs,
arranged with accompaniments, words and dynamics. The logical
sequencing and careful reinforcement of musical concepts lead
naturally to a broad musical understanding. Student confidence stays
high because they really understand what they are doing.
