INTRODUCTION
The place of the Intermediate Song Reader of the New Educational Music
Course in this system of musical instruction will be better understood by a
brief survey of the entire Course.
The Aim. The aim of the New Educational Music Course is :
To inspire love of good music ;
The New ^^ develop a musical voice ;
Educational i ⢠w ā¢ā¢
Music Course ^o teach sight smgmg ;
To induce musical interpretation.
The Material. A distinguishing feature of the material throughout the
Course is that each number illustrates some well-known characteristic of
music, racial or individual, and contains that vital quality called musical
content, which appeals to the inexperienced learner as well as to the trained
musician.
Basis of choice. Aside from the elements in notation of music, which are
noted as they occur in the Course, there has been in the choice of material
a constant recognition of the ideal development of the pupil. This includes
the physical development resulting from deep breathing, the intellectual
development involved in a systematic study of the subject, and the subtle
development of character which comes from familiarity with good music.
All forms of music are represented, from the simple folk song to the melo-
dies of the greatest composers of all nationalities, gleaned from the fields of
song, cantata, oratorio, opera, and symphony.
Some of the best living composers are represented by settings of " poems
every child should know."
The wide range of song subjects and the variety of moods represented in the
Course respond to the complex nature and environment of childhood and youth.
The part songs are made particularly attractive by contrapuntal treatment,
by the introduction of the melodic theme in the lower voices, and by voice
accompaniments.
The vocal arrangements from the classics reflect the spirit of the original,
both melodically and harmonically.
iv INTRODUCTION
The Plan. The plan underlying the arrangement of the material furnishes
an outline for consecutive study; at the same time the material is so grouped
that any modification of the plan may easily be made by teachers when
desirable.
Suggestive headings and margitial notes make clear the special rh}1:hmic
and melodic problems in process of development.
TJie Glossary in each reader is an authority upon which teacher and pupil
can depend for definition and representation of musical signs and terms
occurring in that reader. At the same time it summarizes for the teacher
the technical work which study of the reader develops. The glossaries of
the successive books contain such analyses as may logically be presented in
connection with the respective readers.
The Intermediate Song Reader of the New Educational Music Course is
adapted for study in the average fifth and sixth grades.
^^ , ^ ,. ^ Part I is devoted to a review of principles made familiar by study of
The Intermediate ^ ^. ^, ā r^ ā , rr jj
p J ^"^ First Music Reader.
Part II develops new rhythmic types.
Part III presents melodies using ^i, ^2, ^, ^5, ^, t^;, 1?3, 1?6, and bs in simple progressions.
Part IV introduces easy three-part song.
Part V presents familiar and patriotic songs.
New melodic effects in the Intermediate Song Reader arise from the use of
intermediate sharps and flats in simple progressions only, the study of the
chromatic scale as a whole being deferred to a later book. Rhythmic figures
new to the work of the year are such as result from the combination of
rhythmic types developed in Part II of the music reader.
Constructive study. While the First Music Reader simply names and
represents what pupils should learn from association and repetition, the
Intermediate Song Reader adds to mere representation constructive study of
the major scale and resulting signatures, and rules for estabUshing the pitch
of different keys from two-lined c (c), third space, treble staff.
Broad musical development. Recognition of musical effects through the
sense of hearing, and reproduction of the effects by the pupil, should continue
in every grade. Melodic and rhythmic drill, attention to voice
Saggestions ,. , ... 1 r ⢠1 r 1 ā¢
quahty, pronunciation and articulation, and faithiul interpre-
tation of the sentiment expressed by the composer, ā these will give to the
INTRODUCTION v
music hour an aesthetic and educational value which will render it worthy of
its place in the school program.
Exchange of parts. Pupils assigned to sing the upper part in one song will
do well to take the lower in another. This makes them musical and provides
voice training of ideal range.
Written work. Individual progress may be tested, and pupils strengthened,
by requiring written reproductions of musical phrases or of entire melodies
which are sung or dictated by the teacher. Each year the problems incor-
porated should be a step in advance of previous years.
So7ig repertoire. The many songs worthy to be committed to memory, and
the variety of song programs available within the music reader, merit atten-
tion. Songs of varied character and movement grouped in the order typi-
cal of the symphony make a charming program, ā a quick, cheerful selection
being followed by a slow, graceful melody ; this by a humorous, playful
song, ā a gay, lively composition completing the group.
The correlation of song subjects makes an interesting program. Group
the flower songs, occupation songs, g^ame songs, patriot songs, etc., thus :
Flower Songs
Asters, No. 4 Lily Bells, No. 54
Goldenrod, No. 7 The Clover, No. 152
The Pansy, No. 14 Flowers Asleep, No. 158
The Dandelion, No. 199
