The well-known longl includcd in this collection have, therefiore, been arranged with simple bassparts which fr4y, if necessary,be learnt by rote and then combined with the treble part. The bass melodies are genuine bass parts and, in order to support the lessexperienced singers (the lower voices), their part has, on occasionand of set purpose, been duplicated in the accompaniment. Most of the soniF which form this cbllection have been tried-but, with encouraging results, on the boys of George Heriot's School, Edinburgh, and the book is now offered in the hope that it will enable all types ofvoices to share with enjoyment in the music-making of the school.
