What you get with every song

Each item in the catalogue is a complete study unit — not a PDF dump, but the two things you actually rehearse with, aligned to each other.

Line-by-line IPA

Every phrase transcribed in the International Phonetic Alphabet, syllable boundaries and stress marked, so you can see exactly where the sound sits.

Word-for-word gloss

A literal English gloss under each line plus an idiomatic reading, so you know what you are singing about at the level of the individual word.

Native-speaker audio

Spoken pronunciation recordings by Anna Pych, timecoded to the transcription so you can jump straight to the phrase you are working on.

The catalogue

Songs by Moniuszko, Szymanowski, Bacewicz and Paderewski, with Chopin, Karłowicz and Poulenc in preparation. Every piece is prepared and recorded by Anna Pych.

For conservatoires and universities

Departments license the catalogue for their singers. Students get their own accounts — access begins when they enrol and ends when the licence does, with no shared passwords to chase down after graduation.

Individual student accounts

Students sign up with their institutional email or an invite code and are linked to your licence automatically.

Access that expires on time

Set the licence end date once. Access lapses for the whole cohort on that date without anyone having to revoke accounts by hand.

Invoiced, not card-only

Departmental purchasing works the way your finance office expects, with proper invoicing and a named contact.

Anna Pych

Every transcription and every recording in the catalogue is prepared by Anna Pych. The transcriptions follow the sung language rather than a dictionary ideal — the choices reflect how the line is actually voiced, which is what makes them usable in the practice room and the coaching studio.
