Changing Voices [Alf:98-EP72482]

When boys' voices change from a childhood treble to a lower adult voice it is important to treat the voice particularly carefully. Pushing it too hard may cause permanent damage. Changing Voices contains a collection of songs to help the young singer through this period: Songs with a range of between a fifth and an octave, in a choice of keysWide-ranging repertoire covering classical, musical theatre, traditional songs and new commissionsBackground notes about the songs and their composersPronunciation guides for singing in Italian, German, Spanish and FrenchDescription of the physiology of the changing voicePerforming advice and technical guidanceFor this particular period in a young male singer's life, it is important that the song fits the singer, rather than expecting the singer to fit the song. The songs in this book have been selected with this in mind.
