Description

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 collectionof songs to help the young singer through this period: �� Songs with a r ange of between a fifth and an octave, in a choice of keys �� Wide-ranging repertoire covering classical, musical theatre, traditional songs and new commissions �� Background notes about the songs and their composers ��Pronunciation guides for singing in Italian, German, Spanish and French �� Description of the physiology of the changing voice �� Performing advi ce and technical guidance. For 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.
