SCHIRMER’S LIBRARY OF MUSICAL CLASSICS A. DANNHAUSER Solfege des Solfeges Translated by J.-H. CORNELL IN THREE BOOKS > Book 1 — Library Vol. 1289 Book I~ Library Vol. 1990 Book il — Library Vol. 1891 G. SCHIRMER, Inc. Conyright, 1891, by G. Schi Piatt be the UA,Preparatory Exercises. For the Intonation: ‘These exercises are made in order to familiarise the pupil with the in- tonations, and for sparing him the necessity of solving two ¢ifficulties at ‘a time; the duration of the values and the accuracy of the sounds; hence, he will have to practise them exclusively while he is learning the first chapters of principles. When the pupil shall seize the intonations easily,he will have to prac- tise in beating two, three and four to the measure, counting the beats instead of naming the notes, or of solfeggiating them. Fur this exercise, he should observe the greatest equality in the duration of each beat.(1) sli times.| Rest. [4 times. 1 Rest. 4 times. Rest. 1. 4 : E - > = [eqecmesg jase ceeaeal 4 times.

(It would even be very important to make use of the Metronome for this vork.which ought to be done at different degrees of slowness and of quickness ‘The first labor, made with care, wlll give greet ease to all that shall follow: if belongs, however, to teachers of fo mothers of families beginzing with young children iu thissy es seatlal part of the art, to gulde them, according to thelr youthful intelligesce () Each exercise should be made as many times as indicated. It would be vell that the teacher should execute it alone the first time, letting the pupil repeat it immediately G)Let the pupil hold each note as long as his breath will allow him, without fatigue, and let him rest for a measure, in silence,at all the reste indicuted. seer Copyright, 189% by G.
