Songs for Singers of Any Age

Songs for Singers of Any Age

Diction, Melodies and Accompaniments for learning new repertoire

Italian, French and German spoken in rhythm by Rodney Mann

Each song on the CD has three tracks; diction alone, melody alone and performance version

"Here is an excellent CD that is thoughtfully and intelligently conceived for the young teenage singer as well as the more mature singer. Corrine Walker has a clear, pretty voice that young singers can identifiy with and her musicianship and diction are admirable. She is most ably supported by excellent pianists." Ellen Faull
