living composers: i am BEGGING you to write vocal lit for beginning singers. we’re talking SCALAR MOVEMENT, four bar phrases, simple rhythms, some good old-fashioned part doubling in the accompaniment, modest vocal ranges, earworm melodies, accessible text

this repertoire is desperately needed in my private voice studio!

(yes, i and many others would pay GOOD MONEY for these things)

it may not be the Newest or Flashiest or maybe Most Exciting Thing, but i guarantee you that your pieces would be performed & programmed regularly

also, #ComposerTwitter & #NewMusicTwitter, please take this tweet thread as a clarion call for you to DROP YOUR LINKS in this thread if you’ve already written this kind of rep!!!!!

this tweetstorm Brought to You by the fact that i have many young beginning singers in my voice studio i would love to introduce to contemporary rep but most of it is just developmentally out of their depth right now!!!
