Synopsis

Excerpt from French Musical Diction: An Orthologic Method for Acquiring a Perfect Pronunciation in the Speaking and Especially in the Singing of the French Language, for the Special Use of English-Speaking People

The author''s object in writing this book is: F irst, to show the student the necessity of a perfect diction, expecially in singing. Second, to prove to him that the correct pronunciation of a foreign language, especially French, can be easily acquired and mastered by any serious and attentive student, and that such an acquisition is the best and greatest help to perfect singing. Third, to do away with many misleading statements long existent in books written by very learned teachers of French syn tax, who are not, however, sufi''iciently competent in matters of acoustics, phonetics, and especially of the art of singing, and even of elocution. To be able to recite with intelligence and expression is not necessarily a proof of competence in matters of these arts and sciences. Fourth, to classify in order to simplify all the rules consciously or unconsciously governing the pronunciation of the French language; and this, to enable the student to pronounce French (especially in singing) as perfectly as the cultured French native.
