Father, Daughter Release Music Performance Book

In their book "The Maylyn Murphy Singing and Performance Method" (ISBN 1466497939), Purvis Atkinson Jr. and his daughter Maylyn Atkinson Murphy help aspiring singers improve their ability and showmanship by showing readers fundamental skills and musical theory.

Murphy and Atkinson assure readers that anyone can improve their vocal range, singing abilities and showmanship by continually practicing basic music theory, ear training and vocal performance. While usually taught as separate courses, these skills have been logically combined to apply these subjects in a practical and useful way.

The authors also explain the combination as a way for musicians to have the ability to collaborate with other musicians after reading their book. Their book is a beginning course aimed at young students, with the recommendation of using it with a music teacher.

"I want students and teachers to consider this book a primary resource that is easy to use and straightforward in presenting essentials for success in singing and performance," Atkinson says. "It is also a great reference that students can use to brush-up on most technical problems they could experience if they haven't sung in a while."

The beginning course is filled with practical music fundamentals and invaluable tricks of the trade that are easy to understand, fund and informative. Murphy believes the range in music throughout the book will help students to better musicians.
