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 10 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, and also covers such topics as more advanced divisions and
sub-divisions 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, 2, 3 and 4-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!

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 levels stay high because they really understand what they are doing.
