The Modern Music Series A Second Book in Vocal Music wherein the study of musical structure is pursued through the consideration of complete melodic forms and practice based on exercises related to them by Eleanor Smith author of "Songs for Little Children," Teacher of Music in the Chicago Kindergarten College and froebel's Kindergarten School. Formerly in charge of Department of Vocal Music in the Cook County Normal School and C.E. Richard Mueller, A.M. Eleanor Sophia Smith (1858–1942) was an American composer and music educator. [source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleanor_Sophia_Smith ] from the Introduction: "This book, like 'The Beginner's Book of Vocal Music,' is devoted to song-study, that is, to a consideration of musical construction as it exists in melody proper; but, unlike its predecessor, it endeavors to advance the child beyond imitation to that stage where the elements of melody are no longer merely felt, but recognized, and where the child's ability to read notes is the outgrowth of song experience and observation, not of memory alone."
