Excerpt from A First Book in Vocal Music: Wherein the Study of Musical Structure Is Pursued Through the Consideration of Complete Melodic Forms and Practice Based on Exercises Related to Them The plan of the First Book of Vocal Music differs somewhat from that of the preceding book, the Primer of Vocal Music, and represents a further advance from imitative song singing toward the reading of music. As in the Primer, emphasis is given to the establishment of the proper spirit in sing ing, but a large part of the First Book is devoted to study and practice in sight reading. The training in sight reading is obtained through songs and exercises especially adapted to the purpose, and with the aid of rote singing.
