('Our Land of Song' was the fifth book in the music series entitled 'A Singing School', and includes the Teacher's Manual as well as the music, and was actually used as a music textbook in primary education, and music reader. For those who know music, you may enjoy knowing that these 207 songs are divided as follows: Unison (51); Soprano & Alto, or melody and descant, or obbligato (150); Soprano, Alto, and optional descant, or first soprano, second soprano, and Alto (6). And the practice indicated of alternating groups in the singing of higher and lower parts and inclusion of a generous number of unison songs was, and is to aid in keeping the voices of all the singers light and floating, rather than allowing the children to develop the idea that the altos should sing with a heavy, coarse, or deep tone. The six songs in three parts are introduced to foreshadow the three-part singing which can be developed at a later time.)
