This review is from: Teaching the Elementary School Chorus (Hardcover)

When I landed a job teaching music, I found myself in the middle of an elemenary school chorus, grades 1 through 6. In college, we were taught how to teach middle school/high school students. I had no idea what would be appropriate for elementary students. Thank goodness I found this little gem of a book. A complete, concise guide with so much help and information! Everything from voice ranges to vocal warm ups to diction and much, much more!

5.0 out of 5 stars A hands-on useful tool for the beginner choral teacher, July 31, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Teaching the Elementary School Chorus (Hardcover)

This book is a very practical tool for the beginner elementary school choral director. Most choral books are geared toward the high-school or college choir. This gives you acurate information on childrens voices appropriate steps for training and a way to keep your students singing the coorect way while you and they are having fun.
