Choral Score Reading Program / Richard F. Grunow/Milford Fargo / Workbook

Ideal for undergraduate and graduate students, and even experienced conductors, these are challenging, sequential programs that really teach. HereÆs how: Performances of a diverse selection of choral music have been recorded with errors built in. Students listen to the performance and evaluate the tempo, balance, tone quality, and intonation (among other characteristics) of the performance. They must consider stylistic as well as harmonic relationships. The students are free to make any necessary marks on the scoresùthe work books are theirs to keepùand compare their analyses to those of a panel of experts. Next they will hear a recorded ôacceptableö performance of the excerpt.
