They rarely, if ever, discuss a song's meaning and feeling, even though those elements are precisely what draws people to vocal music in the first place. Thousands of books have been written about choral technique, teaching people how to sing technically well. What sets The Heart of Vocal Harmony apart is its focus on honest unified expression and the process of delivering an emotionally compelling performance. It delves into this underdeveloped vocal topic: the heart of vocal music and the process involved in consistent emotional expression while singing as a group. The Heart of Vocal Harmony is not just for a cappella groups-it is for all vocal harmony groups, ensembles, and choirs of all levels, with or without instruments. In addition to the process, the book features discussions with some of the biggest luminaries in vocal harmony: composers, arrangers, directors, singers, and groups-including Eric Whitacre, Pentatonix, the Manhattan Transfer, and more!Heart of Vocal Harmony Choral singingInstruction and studyEmotions in musicChoral singingInstruction and study.Emotions in music.782.5/143Sharon Deke1555255BOOK9910795523103321The heart of vocal harmony3817022UNINA
