INTRODUOTIOI^,
Just as language is studied from examples of the best writers, so music should be studied from the works of the best composers. The song contains all the elements of instruction, and those elements should be studied for the sake
of interpreting the song. Melody, rhythm, tone-production, enunciation, breathing, and interpretation are best studied from living and vital songs, and these

should be the source and the basis as well as the object of instruction. The song is the goal. When the goal is reached the race is over. Hence, the constructive elements that enter into the song should first be studied, the difficult
or unexpected either in tune or rhythm, the pronunwords and their musical setting ; all these things which are proper for drill should be carefully gone over, and then the child may confidently and successfully attack the song as a whole, with the reasonable hope He thus gains confidence and enthusiasm for additional of singing it correctly.

Dictation has ever been one of the principal aids of the is herein furnished, and a feature is also made of dictation

Enunciation. In singing this Is such an Important element that no excuse is needed for its constant use in this book. The study of vowels and vowel quantities, and of consonant enunciation,

are of the utmost value In singing,

and should receive the teacher's most

careful

attention.

Part Singing. An optional alto part has been added to many of the songs. This may serve as an effective aid to the harmony, If the songs are ever used with the piano, or may be sung occasionally by the teacher after the song has been thoroughly mastered by the pupils, thus familiarizing the pupil with music In parts, a more difficult form than the unisonic, teaching him to concentrate his attention, to tune bis voice, and to blend his tones with those of another part.

INTRODUCTION.

Special Songs have been provided for every month of the school year, as weL as for vari. 0U8 occasious. An interesting melody correct in form, with words not beyond the child's comprehension, has been the standard set.

The author wishes

co-laborers

who have

aided

especially to express his thanks to the many friends and him with advice, suggestion and criticism in the mak-

ing of this book. The essential principles of The American Music System are retained, and the changes are such as will render the system more elastic and fitted to meet the needs of all classes of schools, and the varied requirements of
supervisors and directors of music instruction throughout the country.

FIRST STEPS.

By the use of rote songs, children gain the ability to concentrate their attention, to listen These imitative thoughtfully, and to tune and unite their voices on tones of given pitch. The following songs and exercises are mateprocesses are the first steps in learning to sing. rial for imitation, to e-ducate the ear, train the voice within the proper compass, and to arouse
the interest by pleasant words, tunes and rhythms. Vowels and syllables should be sung on such pitches as to bring out the soft quality of the head voice, and constant thought and effort should be given by the teacher to secure this beautiful voice quality. Harsh singing should not be tolerated in the school room. Nos. 1, 2, 3 and 10 are intended to show the class teacher how to present a rote song, taking for this such subsequent songs as please.

The Vowel

in Singing.

Vowels should be formed with the upper and lower teeth widely enough separated to introduce two fingers. See Fig. I. While the shape of the opening made by the lips will vary,
the teeth should be kept well apart for all vowel soiinds. This assists materially in the production of a mellow and pleasing quality, and tends to prevent objectionable thinness of tone in such vowels as 6 and 5. See Figs. 11., a; Fig. III., a; Fig. IV., 6; Fig. V., 6; Fig. VI., oo.

Sing each of these exercises in one breath. The change from one vowel to another in the second measure of exercises 4 and 5 must be made without interrupting the tone. A Tie (^ -) unites two notes of the same pitch into one sound.

Melodic Groups.

These are to be sung by the teacher for imitation by a pupil or pupils. The real progress of the work can be judged ouly by the ability of Individual Singing individuals. Hence the endeavor to have each child sing alone should be made from the outset. As often as possible let each rise and sing some of these imitative groups, or a line or a stanza of a song, the scale, etc. This practice should be continued with several different pupils every
:

BREATHING EXERCISES.

character.

In children's singing, breathing exercises, although important, must be of the simplest The attention of the child should not be directed to the mechanism of breathing,

but he should do something that involves the act in a perfectly natural manner. Each lesson may begin with .some variety of the following exercises:

A.

The Breath

of

Imagination.
;

1. The smelling breath. Breathe as if smelling a beautiful flower hold the breath, Smell again, letting the breath go slowly. retaining the perfume; let it go with a sigh. Change the (imaginary) flower at each lesson. The object may be anything that has a

Let the children play at holding it, raising it to the pleasant odor, an orange, for instance. nose and inhaling the perfume. The breath will be drawn in with a slightly audible sound,
sniff. During singing, however, breathing must be noiseless, the breath being taken through the slightly opened mouth as well as through the nose. 2. The breath (a) of sympathy, (b) of love, (c) of sorrow, (d) of joy, (e) of anger, { f)

but not with a

of defiance, (g) of politeness, etc.

The ingenious teacher will be able to enlarge upon these ideas, giving the children's imagination and fancy full play.
B.

The Measured Breath.

At a given signal the children should rise noiselessly, stand in straight lines, weight on The teacher the balls of the feet, heads up, chests high and forward, arms at sides. Fig. VII. should stand before the class and give the exercise for imitation by the pupils, raising

8 sh,

taking a diffea?it one every day. The teacher mast give the model for these. (2) Prolong on c {third space) or d {fourth line) in the light, flute-like tones of th head voice, the sounds of the vowels 6, oo, a, a, ee, separately, or in combination, as oo-a,

SCALE REPRESENTATION.

When the pupils have learned the numbers from 1 to 8, and reversely from 8 to 1, the teacher should explain that these are the number-names of the scale tones, and that do, re, mi, etc., are called singing names ; that when they are told to sing any number, or when it is
pointed, they are to sing that tone, using either the singing names, or the numbers, or or some other neutral syllable.
lo,

loo

The numbers may then be placed in a vertical column (Fig. XL) on the blackboard, or upon the steps of a ladder ( Fig. XIa.), as below.

Oral Dictation and Ear Training.

The scale relation of musical sounds is the chief problem to be taken up in every lesson. should be presented in various forms in order to retain the interest of the pupils auJ to Dictation (oral and visible) and ear training are aid them in the mastery of the subject. very important exei'cises and should be part of the daily practice.
It

In oral dictation a group of numbers are given, as 8 7

8,

to which the pupil sings lo, loo, or

some other neutral

syllable.

Through ear training the pupil recognizes tones from hearing and names them. Thus, a small group of tones, as 1 2 1, is sung with lo or a and the pupil ( a ) sings the same with solEar training should always be fa names, (b) gives the numbers, or (c) writes them down.
combined with dictation and all groups dictated should also be recognized from hearing. For these exercises always use related tones, not isolated ones. Long groups may be
subdivided into shorter ones as desired.

The pupils learn the very simple song " Birds are singing," strongly enphasizing the loud and soft accents. Judicious questioning should draw out from the pupils, expressed in their

own

language, the fact that certain syllables were loud, others soft, and that these loud and

came in regular order. The song should then be copied upon the blackboard with key-chord,

We'll Jump, and Run.

This song should be sung with the loud accents exaggerated. The pupils should recognize was soft ( unaccented ), the next loud followed by two soft, etc. The pupils should then apply the measure-words and in so doing they will note that the song began upon
that the first note

In these and similar examples the fact should be recalled the unaccented part of the measure. that the loud accent comes directly after the bar.
