Book Description
Children are inherently musical. They respond to music and learn through music. Music expresses children's identity and heritage, teaches them to belong to a culture, and develops their cognitive well-being and inner self worth. As professional instructors, childcare workers, or students looking forward to a career working with children, we should continuously search for ways to tap into children's natural reservoir of enthusiasm for singing, moving and experimenting with instruments. But how, you might ask? What music is appropriate for the children I'm working with? How can music help inspire a well-rounded child? How do I reach and teach children musically? Most importantly perhaps, how can I incorporate music into a curriculum that marginalizes the arts?This book explores a holistic, artistic, and integrated approach to understanding the developmental connections between music and children. This book guides professionals to work through music, harnessing the processes that underlie music learning, and outlining developmentally appropriate methods to understand the role of music in children's lives through play, games, creativity, and movement. Additionally, the book explores ways of applying music-making to benefit the whole child, i.e., socially, emotionally, physically, cognitively, and linguistically.

This is an invaluable resource for the busy church musician and choir director. These descants are written for easy accessibility for the average soprano. Each descant begins on the same note as the hymn to allow immediate success. If a hymn melodic phrase is repeated, the accompanying descant phrase is repeated. No more obscure, difficult descant tunes that require valuable rehearsal time to master: each descant is a memorable melody in its own right. With the purchase of the book of descants, the customer may download free of charge a zipped MP3 file. Sopranos can listen to the file and be prepared for rehearsal. These descants reflect Dr. Barker's rich understanding of worship, melodic singing and choir leadership and rehearsal needs.

Languages : en
Pages : 151
Book Description
Songs I Sing is the raised curtain to a woman, wife, mother, and leader who writes poetry because she must. These one-hundred-plus songs—simple, sweet, sacred, serious, silly, and sensual—seek to upturn every stone in the readers’ heart, resonate in the readers’ mind, and coax a repartee that reflects the impact of the poet’s thoughts, her experiences, her aspirations, her principles. Set to the melody of self-reflection, the rhythm of purposeful living and the tempo of tolerance, Songs I Sing speaks first and foremost to the author, demanding of herself honesty and forthrightness and shunning the unexamined life. A humble exploration of rhyme and prose, reason and rhetoric, commentary and confession, this second book of poetry by B. Germain Reynolds catalogs her love relationship with words and coerces the listener to erupt in song—songs that anyone can sing.
