Sing at First Sight, Book 1 Foundations in Choral Sight-Singing by Andy Beck Choir - Sheet Music
By Karen Farnum SurmaniA sequential sight-singing curriculum for all choirs. Each of the six units (containing four lessons each) clearly introduces new music reading concepts, reinforces those concepts with several rhythm and pitch exercises, motivates students with helpful hints and challenge exercises, and concludes with fun-filled review games and Evaluating Your Performance questions. The helpful Getting Ready pages (which precede each unit) are filled with music fundamentals, and for choirs who have never read music before, an optional Before We Begin chapter opens the book. And it's all neatly laid out in a 96-page octavo sized publication; a perfect fit for your students, and their folders. From whole notes to sixteenth-note patterns, seconds to sevenths, key signatures, dynamics, articulations, and tempo markings; it's all here, and it's all logically ordered to ensure student success! Spend just a few minutes a day with this book and your choir, too, will learn to Sing at First Sight! This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.

I LOVE these books. They are not really for beginners, however. It's book one of a higher level, in my opinion. I use it with all my students who have completed a beginning sight reading level elsewhere. This is the level that gets them ready for All State auditions. It is a sight reading book, and is not meant to give the person the sounds they are to find on their own. I've never used the CD since I am a music teacher and am there to guide them. They can do it on their own if they have previous background.

what you hear as your sample is not what you receive. There is absolutely NO singing on the CD whatsoever.
