Reviews for Getting Started with Middle School Chorus

"In this third edition of Getting Started with Middle School Chorus, Freer revisits key teaching strategies, rehearsal techniques, and middle school choral management within the framework of new information from the latest research and current standards in music education. As with the previous editions, the information is presented in a clear, practical manner which is both meaningful and engaging, particularly for pre-service and beginning choral teachers. Seasoned choral educators will also gain insights from the most current developments related to the areas of changing voice, gender, and related issues that they encounter in the day-to-day world of middle school music teaching. Once again, Dr. Freer provides us with a bold and clever update on his most widely read book. It is an extraordinary text that offers thoughtful reflections on the ""why"" and ""wherefore"" of each topic. This third edition enhances all of the utility and versatility that the book has always offered for every choral educator."
