Description
Designed for students who enter the music theory sequence with very little formal training master essential sight-singing, ear-training, and rhythm skills, Progressive Sight Singing provides a step-by-step introduction to the underlying grammar and syntax of musical structure and prepares students to perceive that structure with both the ear and the eye. Working from the premise that students learn musical skills in much the same order as they do language skills, the book trains the ear first--through hearing and imitating patterns--before teaching students to read and write. Its rich variety of well-paced, graduated exercises provide ample opportunity for practice.

Reviews / Votes
Progressive Sight Singing is thorough and comprehensive and gives equal importance to rhythm and melody. It is the best ear training text I have come across that helps students build fundamental skills and also tackle complex exercises. * Jennifer Bratz, Rocky Mountain College * Logical, clear, and accompanied by copious examples, Progressive Sight Singing progresses in difficulty, contains an excellent rhythm reading section, and is the most pedagogically strong and practical offering for aural skills courses today. * Stephen Emmons, Angelo State University *More details
