Customer reviews:

Dont buy this unless you already can sing

If zero stars was an option I would have chosen it. This cd does not in any way show the listener how to pick out harmony parts. The parts are all sung simultaneously and you have no idea how they were constructed or even what the harmony parts are by themselves. This is by far the worst musical purchase I have ever made and I do have quite a collection of musical texts and cd's. If you are eager to learn how to harmonize this book simply is too complicated and noy well thought out. This cd seems more like a showcase for the authors ability which does the buyer absolutely no good.
