{"product_id":"garys-guide-to-russian-diction-gary-cox-9781500350727","title":"Gary's Guide to Russian Diction for Singers","description":"Russian phonetics is fairly simple, despite a few daunting phonemes. But the spelling of Russian sounds using the Cyrillic alphabet is less straightforward. It gets worse when it is transcribed into English through German or French filters with their odd spellings. Given the chaos of phonetics and spelling in English, the singer may be confronted by a confused welter of competing transcriptions, and may not know where to turn. Turn here. This guide will avoid esoteric linguistic terms as much as possible and clarify the most problematic issues. It will give you the Russian letters with their German, French, West Slavic, and typical English transcriptions, and also their values in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), discussing any troublesome matters along the way. It will present a consistent and user-friendly transcription system designed for singers, not for linguists or language learners or interpreters, but a practical singers' system designed for maximal clarity on the ground, in the studio, and on stage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gary Cox\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1500350729\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781500350727\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/02\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.02h x 8.50w x 0.05d","brand":"Gary Cox","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43985937694975,"sku":"9781500350727","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9337e337-c3e7-4def-a64c-7e2d5c351fbb.jpg?v=1683280428","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/garys-guide-to-russian-diction-gary-cox-9781500350727","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
