Produktbeschreibung
There is no standard method for determining
basic voice classification (soprano, alto, tenor,
bass) of high school choir students. Most practices
seem to be based on tradition rather than research,
and there are conflicting opinions about which
criteria should or should not be considered, as well
as which are the most important. This book compiles
those opinions on voice classification (often hidden
in the vast expanses of a comprehensive choral
methods textbook) for comparison and analysis. In
addition to the examination of scholarly literature,
results of a survey of high school choir directors
from across the state of Texas are included. This
book focuses on the high school singer and would be
particularly useful to high school choir directors
and those in music teacher preparation classes.
