Description
Warming Up with Rounds by Catherine DeLanoy is a valuable collection of choral rounds that are ideal teaching tools for any choral curriculum. Singing rounds will satisfy state and national music standards and help bring choir back into the daily classroom schedule. By using rounds as warm-ups, you can teach vocal technique, music theory, application, appreciation, and history, as well as increase your singers’ understanding of scales, intervals, modes, dynamics, and terminology. Organized in beginner, intermediate, and advanced sections, each round has instructions on the musical focus and implementation of each song. Additional comments give insight into the historical background or practical tips for a successful performance. Several rounds are intentionally included for adolescent boys with limited range. Warming Up with Rounds includes 36 rounds – familiar and rare, easy and challenging, as well as serious and fun.
