Excerpts from a review of The Choral Singer's Handbook, May 2005, Education Update,

 a publication with a circulation of 200,000 and 3,000,000 hits a month on its website.

 

    "…arguably the best such manual around for both amateurs and pros."

      "…covers a lot of ground in a way that makes it all seem easy, and the reference and summary pages at the end, alone, are worth the price of admission."

    "Simply written, affectionate in tone, and charmingly illustrated (by Dan Margulies), Bennett's clear, encouraging and carefully paced instruction evidences intuitive pedagogical sense and deep affection for choral singing."

    "…the book that prompted Director of Choral Music at The Juilliard School Abraham Kaplan to say that anyone 'in need of the information it offers' would be 'hard pressed to find a better one.' This slim, no nonsense paperback on 'how to be a good choral singer' remains timely and significant."

    "A book to … dip into and reread, especially those sections that define and exemplify the elements of music - rhythm and sight singing."
