The following were investigated in this study: the effect of individual/small-group singing activities used within the traditional large-group setting on kindergartners' use of singing voice and developmental music aptitude; the strength of relationship between tonal aptitude and use of singing voice; the length of time over which instruction is needed to provide significant results. Songs, activities, and games were the same for both the control and treatment groups; however, instruction for the treatment group involved small-group and individual participation in the singing activities. Results showed that the treatment did have an effect on the children's development of use of singing voice, that an entire year of instruction was needed for the treatment to be effective, and that a very small relationship seems to exist between use of singing voice and developmental tonal aptitude
