In The Choral Conductors Aural Tutor, James Jordan leads directors on a quest for aural mastery of vocal technique error detection through a program of guided listening using examples from both a high school and a college choir. The included pretests and posttests encourage forward progress by assessing the conductors ability to hear and label problems, including too little head tone, offthebreath singing, jowly placement, sluggish vowel movement, and more. The Core Vocal Exercises on the two CDs demonstrate good ensemble sound by showing both correct and incorrect exampleswe learn what a desirable sound is by hearing what it is not. This book and 2CD resource, rooted in the principles of The Choral WarmUp, is invaluable for conductors of all experience levels, regardless of the age group they teach. The two Aural Study CDs have been recorded by The Williamson Voices of Westminster Choir College and The Pennsbury High School Chamber Choir. Marilyn Shenenberger, Accompanist
