Synopsis
This popular text combines a thorough introduction to the singing process with an anthology of 60 songs. While offering a clear introduction to the basic workings of the voice and methodical voice-building techniques, the text takes a holistic approach, reflecting the view that the study of singing helps students develop greater self-awareness of body and mind. Piano accompaniments of the songs included in the anthology are provided on the companion CD.

From the Publisher
The introductory chapter, unique to ADVENTURES IN SINGING, presents study skills students will need to succeed in the class voice course.
A wealth of exercises and practical "how-to-sing" information is presented in ADVENTURES IN SINGING in a clear, lively writing style.
ADVENTURES IN SINGING includes the most comprehensive coverage of tone production on the market, and at a level of detail appropriate for the amateur singer.
The 60-song anthology in ADVERTURES IN SINGING is prefaced by program notes that provide background on each song, to help the singer prepare a more informed interpretation. International Phonetic Alphabet notation and word-by-word English translations of all foreign texts are also included.
Two audiotapes and CDs of piano accompaniments for all songs in the anthology are also available with the text. Because many students lack sight-reading skills, the recordings include a faint instrumental rendition of the vocal line so students can sing along with the tape without the instrumental line intruding or competing with another voice.
