Vocal Sight-Reading)—Michele Henry
& Keitha Lucas Hamann. Help your
students Level Up! their sight-reading
skills using their minds and ears as well
their voices! This sequential, interactive,

use the system, outline the approach and
sequencing, and provide assessments.
Links are included for additional online
exercises and reinforcement. This series
is designed to support the artistic literacy
goals of the National Coalition for Core
Arts Standards (NCCAS) and many state
music education standards.

One-Minute Sight Singing—Holly
Shaw-Slabbinck & Ronald Slabbinck.
One-Minute Sight Singing teaches and
reinforces the essentials of solfege-based
sight singing without cutting into valuable
rehearsal time. The curriculum, structured
as a collection of one-minute lessons,
targets students of all ages who are new
to sight singing. It also serves as an ideal
component to the regular choral warm-up
routine for singers of all experience
levels. Singers who are new to music
reading and theory will appreciate the
helpful reminders interspersed before new
concepts are introduced in the music. The
careful progression of lessons ensures
that singers will gain a solid mastery
of sight singing, movable "Do" solfege,
and Curwen hand symbols. One-Minute
Sight Singing is uniquely designed with
exercises duplicated in both treble and
bass clefs. Not only does this help singers
learn to read and sight sing in both clefs,
but directors may also use the unison
exercises to help improve tuning and
breath support. A great choice for school,
youth, community, and church choirs!

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.
