Scope and Content

This music dictation book chronicles the music training Donalda David received at the age of 13 or 14, when she was probably registered in the "advanced class" (grades 6-8). Theory questions alternate with melodic dictations, illustrating the preferred methods of teaching sight reading. The exercises were evaluated on a regular basis and Donalda's marks indicate that she was a serious, meticulous student.
