Sight-Singing and Warm-Ups
H Sing at First Sight (Foundations in Choral
Sight-Singing)Andy Beck, Karen Farnum
Surmani & Brian Lewis. A sequential sight-
singing curriculum for all choirs. Each of the
six units (containing four lessons each) clearly
introduces new music reading concepts, reinforces
those concepts with several rhythm and pitch
exercises, motivates students with helpful hints
and challenge exercises, and concludes with
fun-filled review games and "Evaluating Your
Performance" questions. The helpful "Getting
Ready" pages (which precede each unit) are filled
with music fundamentals, and for choirs who have
never read music before, an optional "Before We
Begin" chapter opens the book. And it's all neatly
presented in a 96-page octavo-sized publication,
a perfect fit for your students' folders. From
whole notes to sixteenth-note patterns, seconds
to sevenths, key signatures and dynamics to
articulations and tempo markings, it's all here, and
it's all logically ordered to ensure student success!
Spend just a few minutes a day with this book and
your choir will learn to "Sing at First Sight."

of unison vocal studies is designed for not only
individual voice students but also vocal classes,
as well as large choral groups. The vocalises are

collection simply, but very capably, provides some
vocal materials that are adaptable to different levels
of vocal development. Various areas covered are:
Sing Legato; Staccato Is Short; Marcato Is Strong;
Rich Tone; Sing A Little Louder; Sigh The Tone;
Flexibility; Whole Step, Half Step; The Third Comes
In Two Sizes; Fourths And Fifths Go Up And Down;
Gliding Along (Sixths); Seconds And Sevenths; and
