Primary Studies in Vocal Chamber Music is a collection of trios for solo voice, flute/clarinet/violin/oboe, and piano. The book contains ten musical scores complete with instrumental parts, based on traditional melodies and folk songs from around the world.
This series is aimed at providing an entree into the exciting world of collaborative music-making for the solo singer that is accessible to all levels and voice types. The arrangements are suitable for use in either a private vocal studio or group voice class.
The vocal ranges of the selections are practical for all, deliberately within comfortable limits for any voice type. All scores are printed in concert key for the instructorÕs ease. All lyrics are in English.
Each arrangement has two accompanying recordings: a study recording with all three parts to assist in learning the piece, and a practice track without the vocal line for class and individual rehearsal. These are available online for download at www.sheetmusicplus.com.
