ra werner we rer FE FT % CHAPTER THREE Sing and Play ‘These exercises provide an introductory experience in singing vocal music with piano accompaniment. This chapter deals with the same melodic issues as, are found in Chapter One; now with’ accompani- ment; each section ends with a series of themes and variations for voice and piano. These short pieces should be sung and played by the same person. Therefore the piano parts have been kept at a minimal level of difficulty. The em- phasis is on the melodic line and its relationship to 4 the accbmpaniment. The piano is especially useful in overcoming potential difficulties with intonation. Student’ .with little pianistic ability may use the duets of Chapter. Two as additional easy. sing and play exercises. We suggest that a number of these exercises be assigned each week prior to the class meeting. The skill acquired through the study of this chapter will prepare the student to explore some of the richest treasures in the musical literature. 141SING AND PLAY « SECTION I 1.
