The Effect of Piano Accompaniment on Kindergartners' Developmental Singing Ability.
Atterbury, Betty W.; Silcox, Lynn
Journal of Research in Music Education, v41 n1 p40-47 Spr 1993
Reports the influence of piano harmonic accompaniment on singing ability of 203 kindergarten students during 1 year of instruction. Finds that no significant differences in singing ability occurred in the groups. Suggests that musical aptitude develops gradually and extensive musical exposure and instruction may be necessary to improve singing ability. (CFR)
