Part 5/7:
To help assess your natural singing tendencies, we will use a straightforward five-tone scale exercise. Sing the first five notes of a major scale and then descend back down. To further this exercise, use a vowel sound like "a" as in "awesome." As you record yourself, listen for issues—were you flat or straining? Understanding these nuances is essential for your growth.
Strengthening Your Vocal Range
Building a strong foundation on the lower notes will naturally enhance your capacity to hit higher pitches. Repeat the five-tone exercise using numbers instead of singing. For instance, replace "a" with "1, 2, 3, 4, 5" while maintaining pitch. This technique encourages you to use your speaking voice, which aids in singing more powerfully without straining.
