Reader reviews for Rise Up Singing: The Group Singing Songbook
Review summary
Readers praise this songbook as a comprehensive, portable, and beloved sing?along resource—packed with lyrics and chords to over a thousand songs—ideal for singers, families, and community gatherings. Many call it indispensable and return to it for decades, lauding its breadth, cultural range, and handy indexing. The main criticisms come from instrumentalists and melody players: there’s no standard musical notation, chords appear in a quirky format separated from lyrics, rhythm/tempo aren’t indicated, and some harmonies are simplified or incorrect; small print also frustrates some. Despite quibbles about occasional filler or omissions from the darker folk tradition, it remains a widely used cornerstone often supplemented by recordings or companion CDs.
