Richard F. Grunow, Edwin E. Gordon, and Christopher D. Azzara The purpose of this CD is to help develop facility with tonal patterns and rhythm patterns, first with neutral syllables and then with tonal syllables (solfege) and rhythm syllables based on tonal and rhythm functions. Learning tonal and rhythm syllables is much easier if you already know lots of songs in various tonalities and meters, so build your repertoire of rote songs as you increase your skills with tonal and rhythm patterns.
