Companion Tapes
The five long-playing records referred to in the text have been replaced by three cassette tapes. The correspondence is as follows:
Record 1 = Tape 1a (soprano); Record 2 = Tape 1b (mezzo soprano);
Record 3 = Tape 2a (tenor); Record 4 = Tape 2b (bass).
Tapes 1a, 1b, 2a, and 2b are identical in content. They include vocal examples of pedagogical principles established throughout the text and the drill materials in Chapter Ten.
Record 5, bands 1-6 (“Au clair de la lune”) = Tape 3a; Record 5, bands 7-14 (“Widmung”) = Tape 3b.
Tape 3 demonstrates textual intelligibility through performance of two songs in their original language and in English by each of the four voice types.
The companion tapes may be ordered from Indiana University Press.
