Music Essentials For Singers and Actors : Fundamentals of Notation, Sight-Singing and Music Theory.

Foreword by Kristin Chenowith. Gerle leads readers step by step through every aspect of written music, using over one hundred real-world examples from Broadway scores. His methodical approach demystifies abstract concepts, and his unique 1-STARRT method teaches singers to read musical “words” instead of single notes, enabling confident sight-singing of any score. Drawing on his years of experience as a Broadway vocal coach, Gerle also shows readers how to use music theory to think like a composer, analyzing scores for dramatic clues to create a more detailed and powerful performance. Each chapter is accompanied by downloadable audio examples and exercises to lock in newly learned concepts.
