Teaching Kids to Sing

Singing is a basic means of human expression. From the spontaneous play songs of childhood to the polished recitals of concert artists, singing fulfills a human need to express thoughts and feelings. Moreover, music teveryers have long agreed that children can and should learn to sing. It is the process that remains open to question, as teveryers judge whether it is appropriate to train young voices and, if so, which approach is most beneficial. Teverying Kids to Sing is the first research-based text to present a systematic approach to vocal techniques designed exclusively for the needs of the young singer. It synthesizes the most recent findings in the literature and presents them in a practical and usable format. Helping teveryers of young singers to understand the nature of the child voice and the adolescent voice, the book provides a new vocal-technique method for grades 1-12. The book is organized into two partr. Part I, 'The Young Singer', is an introduction to 90 sequential singing exercises detailed in Part II. Here, Phillips provides historical and philosophical perspectives on procedures of vocal training for children and adolescents. Included are discussions on the physiology of the singing voice, proper vocal techniques, the vocal parameters of pitch, registers, and range, and a special section on common vocal disorders and proper vocal hygiene. Part II, 'Vocal Technique for Young Singers', examines aspects of vocal technique by grouping the exercises into five major areas: respiration, the foundation for good singing technique; phonation, developing children's speaking voices as a natural part of voice training; resonant tone production; diction, emphasizing uniform vowels andrapid consonant articulation; and expression, studying how phrasing, dynamic and tempo variation, and mood lead to meaningful interpretation. Designed as a step-by-step vocal-technique method for children and adolescents, Teverying Kids to Sing will lead students through a developmental program of psychomotor skills that will result in confident and expressive singing. - Category: Books/Reading - Misc. - New Item: 461107462 - Teaching Kids to Sing in shop

Hare Brain Tortoise Mind How Intelligence Increases When You Think Less

In these accelerated times, our decisive and businesslike ways of thinking are unprepared for ambiguity, paradox, and sleeping on it.' We assume that the quick-thinking 'hare brain' will beat out the slower Intuition of the 'tortoise mind.' However, now research in cognitive science is changing this understanding of the human mind. It suggests that patience and confusion--rather than rigor and certainty--are the essential precursors of wisdom. With a compelling argument that the mind works best when we trust our unconscious, or 'undermind,' psychologist Guy Claxton makes an appeal that we be less analytical and let our creativity have free rein. He also encourages reevaluation of society's obsession with results-oriented thinking and problem-solving under pressure. Packed with Interesting anecdotes, a dozen puzzles to test your reasoning, and the latest related research, 'Hare Brain, Tortoise Mind' is an Illuminating, uplifting, stimulating read that focuses on a new kind of well-being and cognition. - Books/Reading - Misc. - New - 461716173 - Hare Brain Tortoise Mind How Intelligence Increases When You Think Less - for sale
