Book excerpt: Excerpt from Songs in Sol-Fa: For the Sunday School, Day School and Singing School, Containing a Brief Course of Instruction, and a Graded Selection of Songs in the Tonic Sol-Fa System Hang up a modulator in plain View of the whole school. Let the teacher, or leader (at first only using the easier tunes), sing a short phrase of the tune to the syllables, pointing on the modulator as he sings. Pupils repeat the phrase, the teacher pointing as they sing. Let this be done several times, or until the phrase is somewhat familiar. Teach the next phrase in the same way; then sing the two in connection, and so on, until the whole tune can be sung by the syllables, the teacher still pointing on the modulator. Then turn to the book, and sing the tune to the syllables. If the pupils fail at any point, return to. The modulator and practice the difficult passage as before. When the tune is learned, call attention to the Words, their meaning, the sentiment, etc., and then sing the tune to the words. When the practice is conducted in this way, it will not be long until the most difficult tunes can be easily taught. Not only that, but after a time, the tones will become so familiar that the modulator can be dispensed with, and the tunes taught at once from the book by syllable. Observe that the teacher does not sing with the pupils. They listen and look While he sings and points. He points and listens while they sing. One hour's training of this kind is more effective than five hours spent in singing with the teacher. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
