Book Description

Excerpt from The Music Hour, Vol. 3: Grade Nine and High School The music hour is the expression of a significant idea - the production of a series of music textbooks which, in pedagogy and in material, shall fulfil the highest ideals of educators and musicians. The pedagogy of the series, based on years of classroom experience, is in thorough accord with the conclusions of leading authorities on child study and educational psychology. The material, chosen solely on the basis of musical worth, represents a wide range of selection, including folk songs of all countries, classic compositions of all times, and songs written for the series by many of the foremost composers of the day. One of the distinctive features of the high school years is the changing voices of the boys. In some localities the change occurs earlier than in other places. The songs in this book are so arranged that provision is made for such differences in vocal conditions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
