The Jenson Sight Singing Course—
David Bauguess. An incredibly popular
sight-singing method, this is based on the
solfege system (with optional numbers)
and gives you a step-by step plan for
teaching your choir the fundamentals
of sight singing. By spending just ten
minutes a day on sight singing, you
will dramatically improve your choir's
music skills in just a matter of weeks!
The materials in Volume 1 include 334
diatonic exercises and a glossary of music
terms, with an excellent instructional text
in the Teacher's Edition. Volume 2 is a
logical continuation of this method, or
is for groups that are already proficient
in solfege. It includes 244 exercises
with an easy-to-understand approach to
chromatics; it also covers such topics as
more advanced divisions and subdivisions
of the beat, minor tonalities and more.
An added feature of this method is
an excellent supplement, the Jenson
Sight-Singing Part Exercises, which is
a collection of 82 exercises for use with
this or any other sight-singing program.
Including rounds, two-, three- and four-
part exercises, graded original material,
and excerpts from the choral repertoire,
this is an excellent bridge between singing
just "exercises" and true choral literature!
This is exceptionally popular with your
colleagues, so you owe it to yourself to
examine this very carefully!
