Exquisite! A set of variations like no other. Helman has done it again, giving organists a truly fantastic set of variations on a favorite Christmas tune. Each variation includes the text, offering an idea of the musical image portrayed. These are not for the average organist and will make a spectacular addition to any recital or worship service. This deserves a serious look by serious organists. The set opens with a flowing pastorale and then a trio followed by a brilliant trumpet tune. Next is a beautiful meditation in mixed meter with the melody in the pedal, and the set closes with a splashy toccata. EDITOR'S TOP PICK.

Each type of performer, whether singer, voice-over artists, dancer/singers, instrumentalist/singers, brings specific issues to the voice treatment team and requires special individual attention from the various members of the team, from laryngologist to speech pathologist, singing or voice teacher. The Singer's Voice identifies these individuals, presents reports on cases with special needs and offers myriad solutions that help to preserve the voice and prevent further damage. It is written by a world-leading group of dedicated professionals from an array of disciplines related to the care and treatment of individuals who use their voices in professional settings. Ranging from current day performers to choral conductors to past rock and roll musicians, all contributors have shown a dedication to the care of the singer and performer through their studios, academic training, their research interests and experience, and their clinical and/or their performance background. The content is thoroughly practical and written to be accessible to a wide range of voice professionals, particularly singing and voice teachers; instructors in the various performing arts; those who provide medical and allied health care; and, indeed, performers and students themselves.
