Building Choral Excellence - Teaching Sight-Singing in the Choral Rehearsal (Paperback, New ed)

Designed for both the practicing choral director and the choral methods student, this is the only book that offers such a wealth of information on choral sight-singing under one cover. Topics covered include the history of sight-singing pedagogy and research, a detailed survey of prominent methods and materials, and a host of practical strategies for teaching and assessment. Demorest's comprehensive and practical guide takes the mystery out of teaching music reading and should be a part of every choral conductor's library.
