Dialect
Books with CDs
If you are interested in several accents and dialects, we offer two larger books with CDs, both collections of the exact material contained in the booklets and their CDs, but saving you over 80% of buying them individually. Many universities and conservatories have adopted the first of these two as the dialect textbook in their actor-training programs. If you are considering it for a course you teach, read Information for Instructors.
