As well as being a fine teacher, Douglas is a singer, and he adds that
perspective to his teaching.
This brings up a question. We are taught not to de-emphasize pick-up notes, if
not to emphasize them. However, when I am singing, pick-up notes are usually on
weak syllables. How do I sing on

Pick up notes are not usually extra loud, but must be solid and
substantial as they are the launching pad into the melody. A good
book to consider is a work on Note Grouping by J. Thurmond.
Consider the opening of the Strauss First Concerto for horn.
