A collection of books comprising the music which Kodaly composed and collected for the Method. Based on sol-fa notation combined with unaccompanied part singing from the earliest stages in a child's school music, the Kodaly Method develops musical literacy, secure intonation and rhythmic confidence - essential fundamentals of sound music education.

This comprehensive series of progressive songs and sight-singing exercises is designed to promote a thorough understanding of interval and tonality. By incorporating a wide range of Hungarian folk music and poetry, Kodaly has produced a stimulating addition to the repertoire of school and amateur choirs.

This collection consists of sixty progressive two-part songs that introduce elementary two-part singing. This collection can also serve as an introduction to Kodaly's larger works and to 20th century music..

This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
