PROFESSOR OF MUSIC, AND HEAD OF DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC AT CORNELL UNIVERSITY AMERICAN BOOK COMPANY NEW YORK CINCINNATI CHICAGO Copyright, 191 5 By HOLLIS DANN DAMN SECOND YEAR MUSIC PREFACE ;2)?3- This book is the first in the series to be used by the child and is -^^ ^ intended to furnish rote songs and introductory sight-reading material after the children have had a year of rote singing. Rote Songs. Many of the songs have been composed for this book, and especial care has been taken that the rhythm of tune and text coincide ; i.e., musical and verbal accents fall together. No melodies have been included which do not carry with them a natural and satisfactory harmonic basis. This condition has been most care- fully watched, and it applies to both accompanied and unaccompanied melodies. From Blackboard to Book. Even after the child has becftme accustomed to the chart or blackboard he finds difficulty at first in following the melody-line in a book. This difficulty may be mini- mized and the child's introduction to the book made more enjoyable, by first using songs with which he is already familiar. The songs on the first twenty-three pages are suitable for this purpose, and some of them may be taught in the early part of the year before the book is placed in the hands of the pupil. For this purpose also, and to facilitate review, several songs from the author's "First Year Music" are repeated in this book. How TO Teach Rote Songs. Suggestions concerning the teaching of rote songs will be found in the author's" New Manual for Teachers, pages 21, 23, 24, and 83; suggestions concerning tone quality on page 83. Accompaniments. Piano accompaniments have been included with a large proportion of the songs for the following reasons : 1. To encourage home singing and make music in the home more enj()ya})le and beneficial. 2. To develop a correct harmonic sense, so essential to the child's musical education. 3. To avoid the crude and distorted harmonies that are usually characteristic of improvised accompaniments. Sight-reading. The sight-reading material is exceedingly 5 C PREFACE siinplo and has Ikhmi kopl strictly witliiii tlio reading ' v(!C'al)ulary' of the pupil. Primary Music Ucadiiii; (Icinaiuls constant rcj)cLition of simple, commonplace material in order tliat the elementary sni)ject- niatter lt\>rned throuiih tlie ear may hecome thoroughly mastered and form a part of the child's reading ' vocal)ulary.' TiiixKixc; T(^XE AM) HiiYTini. The pupil should read silently — hear the melody with the 'inner ear' — before reading aloud. Whether or not the pupil has the power to think tone and rhythm can be de- termined only hy individual recitation. Individual recitation is as essential in Music as in English. Tlie sight-reading material in this hook may he used whenever the pupil can readily recognize and sing simj)le melodic scale-groups in two- and three-part measure, from cliart or blackboard. Failure to sing the studies at sight is conclu- sive proof of the pupil's inability to get definite thought from the symbols, and therefore of his unpreparedness for sight-reading. Compass of Material Favorable to Good Tone. The pitch of the songs and studies is favorable to the production of the light head-tone, which should be used exclusively in all the songs and studies. New Manual for Teachers. Detailed suggestions regarding the use of this book will })e found in the author's New Manual for Teachers, pages 21 to 44. Ackxoavledgmexts. Special acknowledgment is due Miss Laura Bryant, Director of Music in the Ithaca schools, for invalu- able assistance in trying out material ; to Mr. Arthur Edward Johnstone for the writing and revision of accompaniments ; to the Yc)uth's Companion for the privilege of using the poems, '^I Am the Little Xew Year" and "Song of the Easter Hare" ; to Paul P. Foster for "The Christmas Tree"; to the Century Company for "Two Little Roses" and "Hoop Song" ; to the H. W. Gray Company for "The Wind"; to A. C. ^NlcClurg and Company for the use of the songs, "Rock-a-by," "The Bird's Valentine," "Morning Hymn," and "Spring Grasses."
