Voiceworks is a magnificent resource for promoting good singing in schools and choirs and everywhere that children sing. The Voiceworks books (complete with CDs) are packed with songs and ideas which are practical, motivating, and accessible.
Young Voiceworks is a great collection of songs and vocal activities to help young singers (KS1/age 5-7) and their leaders develop healthy voices for a lifetime of singing. Accessible and fun, the songs explore basic musical concepts and make up a 'working repertoire' that can be revisited throughout the Primary years. With practical teaching and rehearsal notes and an accompanying CD, Young Voiceworks is an essential resource for all those working with young children.
