Developing treble voice!
LET NATURE SING
Solo Songs for the
Developing Treble Voice
Various. Here is the fifth volume
in a series of solo songs for young
singers. It contains a wide variety of
songs, from spirituals and folksongs
to originally composed works.
Selected with the treble voice in
mind, songs with narrow ranges
of six and seven notes progress
to songs that expand the range
as the voice develops. The nature
of the selections is to challenge
the voice, not to tax it; to develop
its expressive capabilities, not to
overextend them. Contents include:
Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless
Child; I Know Where I'm Goin';
The Song That Nature Sings; Oh
Shenandoah; Night Winds; Pure,
White Owl; How Can I Keep from
Singing?; There's an Air of Joy in
the Meadow; La Paloma and This
Morning Paradise.
