The perturbation problem that describes the effect of a weak magnetic field on stellar adiabatic oscillation is considered. This perturbation problem is singular when the magnetic field does not vanish at the stellar surface, and a regular perturbation scheme fails where the magnetic pressure is comparable to the thermodynamic pressure. The application of the Method of Matched Asymptotic Expansion is used to obtain expressions for the eigenfunctions and the eigenfrequencies.
