Advice to Singers
by Frederick James Crowest
Publisher: Frederick Warne & Co. 1904
ISBN/ASIN: B003UI4ANC
Number of pages: 128
Description:
There is no subject, perhaps, on which opinions are so divided, and prejudices run so high, as the proper method of training and using the voice; nor is there perhaps one more wrapped in mystery than is the art of singing. This book will not, I am sure, add to the mystery. A careful perusal of its contents should clear away many misconceptions, and place the student on the right road to that end which he or she has in view.
