Everlasting Voices (Medium low voice)

Description

Increasing numbers of people are taking to singing in later life, driven in part by increasing medical evidence of the health benefits it brings. Singing aids physical and neurological well-being, but above all it brings enjoyment, not only to those who have a lifetime experience of singing (both in choirs and solo), but also for those to whom it comes as an entirely new activity. Everlasting Voices, compiled specifically for the older singer, contains: 24 songs with a modest vocal range, in a wide range of styles; background notes about the songs and their composers; pronunciation guides for singing in Italian, German, Spanish, and French; a guide to keeping your voice healthy; performing advice and technical guidance.
