Based on the successful Essential Elements for Choir series this second volume in our choral sight-singing method will allow you to continue to build skills in your choral ensembles with a handy octavo-sized volume! Continuing where Volume 1 finished this step-by-step approach uses unison and combinable exercises along with motivating songs to provide a basis for developing music literacy within the choral rehearsal. The Accompaniment Cd's provide light accompaniment for the combinable pitch builders speech choruses and songs. In keeping with the spirit of sight-reading there is no singing on the CDs. Accompaniment CD available.
