4.0 out of 5 stars Diction: Italian, Latin, French, German, September 1, 2000
By 
Royce Blackburn (Grand Forks, ND USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Diction Italian, Latin, French, German...the Sounds and 81 Exercises for Singing Them (Paperback)
Considering the plethora of diction books for classical singers on the market, the Moriarty is still the best for a general diction text. In organization, content, and utility, it is by far the text of choice for beginning students. Its exercises clearly and succinctly describe the sounds and symbols of the IPA, and the layout of dicton rules for each language are readily comprehensible by the most inexperienced of students. Highly recommended and it is still offered at a reasonable price in this day of textbook cost inflation.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great reference., January 11, 2006
This review is from: Diction Italian, Latin, French, German...the Sounds and 81 Exercises for Singing Them (Paperback)
This is really an excellent text for use both in the classroom and on your own. This is a wonderful way to begin training muscles associated with articulation to pronounce different sounds required for singing in other languages. Moriarty provides an excellent foundation for beginning to learn the International Phonetic Alphabet. This is a great reference for IPA symbols and provides a clear, analytical way for forming, both in the brain and with articulators, pretty much any sound in the languages covered. This is a permanent reference in preparing for accurate performances in foreign languages.
