Literature for Voice: An Index to Songs in Collections, 1985-2000

by Thomas Goleekee

Overview

A practical and useful reference book for students and teachers. Unique in concept, it shows in musical notation the key and range of over 1,700 songs in 60 of the most popular and available song collections.

Continuing the unique concept established in the previous volume, Volume II lists:
· Composer
· Title
· Key and range in musical notation of each song
· Anthology of Grieg songs
· Pronunciation

Each song has an entry number, which makes the index of song titles and composers helpful and easy to use. If a song is available in more than one range, all keys and ranges are shown. A valuable tool for librarians as well as for students and teachers. Cloth edition originally published in 1984.
