This series was designed to supplement traditional vocal instruction and works perfectly as preparatory literature for The First Book of Solos and The First Book of Solos Part II. Each piece is in English and has a limited vocal range as well as a piano accompaniment that is playable by a student pianist. The pieces include art songs, folksongs, humorous songs, and suitable vintage popular songs and are all appropriate for contest solos. The accompanying Online Audio includes professionally-recorded accompaniments. Mezzo-Soprano Contents: At Parting (Rogers) · Early One Morning (arr. Williams) · Ev'ry Time I Feel the Spirit · The First Primrose (Grieg) · Gently, Johnny, My Jingalo (arr.
