| Summary, etc. |
"This guide to singing for students and amateurs is written from the standpoint that most literature on the subject is unnecessarily complicated and mysterious. IN the author's words: 'Singing, ideally, is a natural, spontaneous act; difficulties are artificial.' There is a chapter discussing which physical and emotional types are most suited to a career as a singer; an important section on musicianship for singers; and a long and valuable discussion of repertoire, with a number of specimen programmes. At each stage there is a great deal of useful advice, and the author's aim throughout is to be matter-of-fact and practical." -- Book Jacket. |
