Synopsis

Excerpt from Jordan's New Method of Sight-Singing: A Simple and Practical System of Reading and Singing Music at Sight; With Exercises and Illustrations

This state of affairs is the result of methods need lessly intricate, both in the principles and the manner of presenting them. While some persons overcome the difficulties thus presented in reading music, the larger number are left as much in the dark as ever.

Teachers of Voice Culture are aware that many persons are desirous of becoming singers, but who overlook the very important branch of learning to sing music at sight, and seem satisfied with laboriously learning the melodies of a few selections with the help of a teacher. Such pupils may attain success, so far as the cultivation of the voice is concerned, yet, if they are called upon to sing a composition which is new to them, or, to sustain a part in concerted music, they feel forced to decline.
