Young, Allen. Choral Educators Resource Handbook. Choral Resource Seminars. San Francisco, California: Choral Resource Seminars, 1985.
-
Choral educators and conductors seeking information on traditionally successful choral literature in school situations.
-
Includes literature lists of outstanding choral works for school use. Includes various voicings from SA to SATB divisi with various instrumentation.
-
Divided into subject areas, this book contains a master list of choral works grouped by voicing, and then by genre. Selection seems to reflect author's bias based on personal conducting experience, composer quality, and performing trends in music education. Latter part of the book contains subject headings with additional music selections. These subjects include some additional music and information not mentioned in the original listing under categories such as: musical theater, chorus and band, collections, reference books, publishers and retail music scores. Each listing contains title, composer/arranger, publisher, level of difficulty, accompaniment and comments as well as range markings put on a staff.
-
This is a broad yet thorough resource guide for the choral educator. Listings contain pertinent information, but no value judgments.
