Voiceworks is a magnificent resource for promoting good singing in pre-schools, schools, community choirs, adult choirs and everywhere that people sing. The Voiceworks books (complete with CDs) are
packed with songs and ideas which are practical, motivating, and accessible. Young Voiceworks is a great collection of songs and vocal activities to help young singers (KS1/age 5-7) and their
leaders develop healthy voices for a lifetime of singing. Accessible and fun, the songs explore basic musical concepts and make up a 'working repertoire' that can be revisited throughout the Primary
years. With practical teaching and rehearsal notes and an accompanying CD, Young Voiceworks is an essential resource for all those working with young children.

- 'Jo McNally is one of America's best exports to the UK, and anyone who has had the privilege of seeing and hearing her work in a hall full of children and adults will confirm that she is a
truly inspirational figure in live music education. If you can't have her vivid presence, the next best thing is surely this compilation of some of the repertoire she uses with pupils at KS1 . . . The
variety of the 32 songs in the collection is broad and impressive . . . The Warm Up and Stomp Canon does much more than help children 'keep the beat'; as they stomp and click and circle and flick,
they will be involved physically, mentally and emotionally. Like much else here, the song is pretty well irresistible.' -Tom Deveson, Music Teacher April 07
- OUP has a winning formula with
its Voiceworks series. Each volume is a valuable resource full of attractive songs in a wide variety of styles designed to capture the imagination of young singers. And, if my recent experience of
adjudicating school and community choirs at local festivals is anything to go by, children really enjoy performing Voiceworks items . . . A hallmark of the Voiceworks series is that every book is a
complete teaching resource with photocopiable pages, excellent teaching notes full of practical help and ideas for learning and performing each item, as well as much sound technical advice on how to
encourage children to sing well and enjoy themselves. Christopher Field, Music Teacher, July 2007
