DESCRIPTION:
"Essential classroom and studio resource for working with young singers" according to Melinda Beasi. As a teacher who works almost exclusively with young singers (both in private lessons and in a class setting), this book is my most treasured go-to volume for working them through their greatest challenges as aspiring artists. At their stage of vocal development, technique is basic, and their biggest stumbling blocks in performance are in the less-straightforw. Great book Great book. I have been used it with my students and it really did help.. "Raising our quartet to a new level!" according to Mary Hopkins. Interesting and unique approach to rhythm. Not finished yet but the first few chapters have been thought provoking and the exercises are fun. Looking forward to finishing the book and applying it to our quartet experience.

He has homes in New York and Michigan. J.
