| | The Second Book Of Soprano Solos
Parts one and two of "The First Book Of Solos" series were written to provide a good foundation for aspiring vocalists. "The Second Book Of Solos", as a continuation of the series, has been designed to contribute to musical and vocal development at the next progressive level of study. These songs require a wider vocal range and more technique and skill. The songs are still chosen in several languages, and are from a variety of periods and styles. Included are several operetta choices and oratorio solos.
