Ebooks To Download

(Music Pro Guide Books & DVDs). Most choirs spend their rehearsal time focusing on notes, rhythms, and precision. They rarely, if ever, discuss a song's meaning and feeling, even though those elements are precisely what draws people to the 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 an underdeveloped vocal topic the heart of the music and the process involved with expressing it. The Heart of Vocal Harmony is not just for a cappella groups it is also for vocal harmony groups, ensembles, and choirs at 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!

I'm not even done with this book and yet I used its message last week as the primary focus of a musical theater class I was teaching. If you're serious about making music your career or vocation, you need to be true to you and to the music you choose to perform. Your performance needs to come from your heart or else your act may be quickly forgotten.Deke Sharon writes just as he speaks and he tells you how it is. He gives wonderfully inspirational advice on things to think about when approaching a musical performance.I would recommend this book to any musician, actor, performer of any kind!

Deke Sharon shares his knowledge to enhance acapella singing, communicating true emotion to the audience.

Deke gets to the heart of great vocal ensemble performances, with lots of great stories, references, and tools you can use with your ensemble to up your game.
