How to understand if there is a voice to sing. Audio course "Learning to Sing Clearly"

Hello dear reader!

I have been teaching singing for quite a long time exactly those people who come and say: “I don’t hit the notes at all» . Sometimes it turned out that a person left after one lesson, having already learned to sing.

My method of learning to sing is designed for everyone. Not only for those who are capable, like a music school, but also for difficult cases too. Now you can get to know her.

Audio course " Learn to Sing Clear!»

FOR WHOM THIS COURSE: The course is the most help those who can't sing at all. About whom they say “neither voice nor hearing”, or “you don’t get into the notes at all”. This is just for you!

If you are already singing, but you sing quietly, you don’t know how to control your breathing, and the sound doesn’t suit you - you can sing while doing the exercises of the course.

If you sing but you get it, you don't get it, and you can’t always control it - you will also find the solution to these problems in the course. We will learn to sing songs, adjusting each note, and if you practice, you will stop being out of tune.

Exist simple methods to learn to sing cleanly. Do not put on an operatic voice, but for myself, with a guitar, in company. But purely, and realizing: YES, I'm doing everything right. You will forget about everything that you were told before - you will start to sing!

Why is this possible? I explain!

"Why IT'S POSSIBLE? - you ask. I didn't sing for a year (two, three, fifteen years, never at all), and then you tell me that I suddenly get drunk? Why would suddenly?

…I remember how I myself studied at a music school. We had people who sang very well. And there were several boys and girls who pulled one note on solfeggio, and categorically did not hit. One note - all seven years. They waved their hand at them, they said that they couldn’t sing and that they weren’t given it, they put them in triples and let them go in peace.
The funniest thing, as I understand it now:
Their TEACHED TO SING? No! They were told "Sing!"

So what am I up to. Not everyone can sing - at first - yes. But it's not scary.
And the opinion that “singing is so difficult” exists because you were not taught to sing. You were told to sing. And that's all. HOW to sing, HOW TO MANAGE their voice? HOW make it so hit the notes? You were not taught this. So let's finally try LEARN TO SING before trying to sing!

How to LEARN to sing instead of endlessly trying to sing?

The method is simple. What is pure singing? It's hitting the notes. That is, to control the pitch of the voice at will.

Can you imitate a low male voice now, and then imitate a child? You can, to some extent. Can you make a low sound and a high one? You can. You can not manage enough to sing cleanly. But everyone has assignments.

In the course, you will learn to control your voice - higher, lower, and how to hit the right note. This is done using special exercises: simple, sometimes funny, and leading to results. And as a result, you will learn how to hit the notes, which means - sing clean and right.

Hitting the notes is not all that will be in the know. I want to sing not only correctly, but also loudly. Quite right! I also have voice exercises. To voice sounded louder we'll learn relax the throat muscles and find their correct position. And the voice will sound.

Correct is very important breathing while singing- You “hold” the sound, it is loud, lasts a long time, sounds confident. You will learn and develop this skill by completing the course exercises.

The course includes:

The book "Learning to sing cleanly!"
CD with 10 step-by-step audio lessons, programs, exercises for independent work on each topic of the audio lesson, notes of the songs that you will learn.

The total duration of the course in mp3 is 2 hours 43 minutes.

There are 10 audio lessons in the course.

Lesson 1 - Introductory
In the first session we:

Making a plan for the course
We work with conviction. I can sing - I can't sing.

What is a clamped voice, and what is a relaxed one. How they sound.
How to relax your voice. Exercises to help you get clear, even-sounding voices.
3 basic exercises to control the pitch of your voice. By learning to change the pitch of your voice smoothly and accurately, you can move on to pure singing of notes. This is the basic skill that you will not be given in any music school.

Lesson 3 - Purely sing one note
You will learn:

How, using the exercises of the 2nd lesson, to find the pitch of a single note and sing it cleanly.
How to determine if you sang a note cleanly or not. Compare the sensations of pure singing and falseness. It is very important to understand when you sing correctly and when you don't - this is the second basic skill that needs to be given special attention.
2 common mistakes of beginners, as a result of which falsehood occurs. How to avoid them.
What to do if you sang out of tune.

Practical conclusion: if you have learned to sing a pure one note, then you will sing two, and three, and a whole song. This is a matter of practice.
In addition, if you learn to feel whether you sing correctly or not, it will help you in other areas of music as well. Like tuning a guitar. There, after all, you also need to understand - the strings sound the same or differently.

Lesson 4 - We go from note to note and develop voice coordination
You will learn:

Having hit one note, move the voice a short distance up and down - “walk” from note to note in small steps.
You will begin to master the range of voice in which you can continue to sing songs.

Expand the range of sounds you can sing.
It is good to control the voice in this range by learning the exercise.

Lesson 6 - Singing wide jumps. What to do if the notes are not nearby
After completing all the tasks in this lesson, you will:

Learn to sing common melody moves in songs - by scale, by triad, and by jumping through several notes.
Completely master hitting the notes. As in the neighboring sounds, and in the case when the sounds are far from each other. So, you can really sing songs, cleanly falling into all sounds.
You will learn how to immediately hit a high note (sometimes there are problems with this: a low note is immediately sung cleanly and a high one is not).

Lesson 7 - Sing loudly, clearly and beautifully
When you can already sing, hitting the notes, we will start working on the sound quality:

Let's learn how to take the right breath so that the voice sounds long and even.
Learn to sing louder with the help of special technique. You will feel the result of this technique as soon as you try it.
Let's increase the clarity and certainty of the voice. In songs, how well you pronounce the words and direct the sound is important.

Lesson 8 - Singing the first song

Let's learn the melody of the song "Kalinka-Malinka", and sing it cleanly.
Let's learn a song with guitar accompaniment (if you play the guitar, you can learn the chords and play it yourself, if not, sing along with the recording in the exercises).

Lesson 9 - "Hey, let's go!"

Let's learn the melody of the song "Hey, let's go!".

Lesson 10 - “There was a birch in the field”

Let's learn the melody of the song "There was a birch in the field."
Let's learn a song with guitar accompaniment.

The general principles for learning songs that you want to sing later on your own remain the same. And you can take one of your favorite songs and, just like in the last lessons of the course, learn it and sing it.

Changes

“... The fourth training is over, the task has also been partially written down. Suddenly I began to realize that I perceive any music somehow differently. Especially singing. Now it has structure, I'm starting to feel where the tone goes up, where it goes down. Where the transition is smooth, where sharp. I kind of have something to cling to, now I remember my own voice. For the purity of the experiment, he took the same album "45" and again tried to sing along. Happened! Where I used to bass helplessly, I suddenly realized that I could hit a note in the area, say, the 5th fret of the 5th string. There is no certainty yet, but it is already possible to get there. In general, it turns out to pronounce whole phrases quite similarly, and accuracy increases from repetition.

Do you often think about how to learn to sing? Friendly meetings in a karaoke bar, family holidays, even ordinary weekdays, when you are in a great mood, cannot do without a song. Of course, becoming an opera diva or a pop star without an experienced mentor will not work, but you can stop being shy and start singing for your own pleasure after a few independent trainings.

Singing is a skill, the development of which is better to start from childhood. Setting the voice, hearing, the ability to keep the key on the same level, the ability to listen and hear music and other singers - all these are trainable skills that are easier and faster to learn at a young age. But if childhood has long passed, but you want to sing, do not despair. There are some fairly simple exercises for developing singing skills that are suitable for people of any age.

Remember: in childhood, each of us sang songs of our own composition with pleasure, completely ignoring those around us. It is later, in adolescence and adulthood, shame and embarrassment appear. Thoughts come to mind that people around unless their ears are plugged from our roulades, gradually the song becomes quieter and with time it can completely stop.

But singing is not only entertainment, it is also a way to relieve tension, strengthen the respiratory system and develop self-confidence. This is one of the oldest ways of expressing emotions and feelings, along with dance. Is it really possible that the possession of this incredible tool is available only to a select few? Of course not.

For the vast majority of people, learning to sing from scratch is an achievable dream. Some limitations exist for people with hearing and speech impairments, but special training methods have been developed for them. We will consider the general case: a simple person who does not have physical limitations and wants to sing without embarrassment in a circle of friends.

What is needed for vocals?

Let's decide from the very beginning: in this text you will not find a magical exercise that will make you a real Singer in a short time. This requires natural talent, which is subsequently polished by years of training. Even a vocalist (that is, a professional performer with specific knowledge and skills) at home without a mentor will not work.

However, you will definitely learn something. For example, basic skills, without which it is impossible to learn how to sing beautifully:

correct body position and breathing;
diction;
intonation (correct reproduction of notes).

If you know how to play any musical instrument, use this to develop intonation skills.

Let us examine in more detail the skills necessary for anyone who is wondering how to learn to sing on their own.

Correct posture and breathing

The position of the body during the performance must be free. It is best to stand up straight, lower your arms along the body or put them on your stomach in the area of \u200b\u200bthe diaphragm to feel your breath. For stability, it is better to place your legs shoulder-width apart, you need to stand on a full foot, without rising on your toes. After developing the ability to breathe correctly, it is allowed to sit, but in this case, you need to be especially careful not to lean forward or backward, not to lean on the back of the chair.

Shoulders should be dropped. When inhaling, you do not need to raise them, gain full lungs of air. Breathing should be done through the abdomen and diaphragm. No need to excessively reduce the shoulder blades, but you can’t slouch either.

The simple rules of breathing can be briefly formulated as follows: a quick breath - a pause - a slow exhalation. The breath should be quick, quiet, almost imperceptible. As you exhale, you can imagine that you need to blow out the candle: smoothly, evenly and slowly release the air.

When inhaling, the chest should expand, and not rise up, the ribs, as it were, open to the sides, and the air goes into the abdominal cavity.

You need to start a singing lesson with facial gymnastics and chanting. Grimacing is good for warming up: smile broadly, open your mouth as much as possible, puff out your cheeks, stretch your lips with a tube, close your lips and quickly move them in different directions. It’s good if after a warm-up you feel a slight warmth in the muscles. It is worth stretching your neck well, as the muscles can become very tense when singing.

Learn a few tongue twisters, and even better long twisters, they will help you learn to hold your breath and clearly pronounce each sound. During the warm-up, you can first say the alphabet several times, and then voice the tongue twister loudly and with good articulation. Do not strive for speed, our goal is to make each sound as clear and clear as possible. Watch your breath, you can’t let the breath fall in the middle of a sentence or, even worse, a word. Do not "swallow" the endings of words.

To understand the possibilities of intonation, it is useful to hum with your mouth closed. You need to feel the vibration of the nasopharynx well, you can play with the volume and tone. If you want, try humming your favorite song from beginning to end.

After all this, you can move on to chanting from notes. First, sing different syllables on the same note, and then sing ascending and descending scales.

Constant practice

The absolutely necessary condition is the constant performance of exercises. Learning should become a daily ritual. Spend at least half an hour a day practicing technique and breathing. At first, your mouth and tongue may quickly get tired, and your neck may ache. But over time, you will learn not to strain the muscles that are not required for performance.

Try to listen to good music, be it classical instrumental, jazz, blues or rock. You need to learn to hear the music and sing along without words in unison.

To understand the progress, you can make several recordings of how you sing on a voice recorder. Find the "minus" of the song you want to sing, make a low volume and sing. You need to get a recording with only your voice. This is necessary in order to assess what needs to be tightened - maybe you do not have enough breath? Or you can’t pronounce some sounds well, which is why the singing is fuzzy.

Then make a recording where you can hear both the music and the voice - to see if you hit the notes. You may need to select a different song, as some may simply not suit your tone. A pain in the neck can be a signal of this - you do not need to strain to “reach out” a low or high note.

For those who are still confused about how to learn how to sing correctly, below are some easy vocal exercises.

Vowel sounds. Sing "A-O-U-I-E-S-A-E-I-U" as you exhale, and so on in any order. Try to keep the note when you feel that the air is running out, make sure that the voice does not become lower or higher, louder or quieter, and also do not cut off the singing with a sharp breath.
Sing the scale "do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-si-do" first in forward and then in reverse order (ascending and descending scale). At the same time, it is better to find a sound source by which to navigate how the notes should sound and repeat as similarly as possible. If you successfully hit the note, you will get a resonance effect.
To develop sonority and voice height, try to be a cuckoo. Inhale and exhale deeply several times, then on the next exhalation, loudly make the sounds of "U-u" like a cuckoo.
An exercise similar to the previous one, but instead of a short “scream”, you need to try to feel like a wolf - on a high note, stretch as long as possible: “Uuuuu”.
Let's go back to vowel sounds and scales. This time follow the strict order: "I-A-A-O-U" and pronounce the sounds short enough. In this way, you will go from high sounding to low sounding. Then you can repeat in reverse order.

So, we answered the question that concerns many, how to learn to sing. Performing simple exercises, you can develop not only the utilitarian skill of singing, but also understand your own capabilities, stop being afraid of the public, and become much more confident in yourself. And also, perhaps you will discover a gift in yourself and eventually become a real singer.

Answer:

Many women love to sing in the shower, but how do you know if there is a voice? It has long been proven that a person hears himself differently than the people around him. Sinus resonance is to blame. People hear themselves through the bone. In order for a person to find out how the people around him perceive the singing, you can record the voice even on the most ordinary voice recorder.

When listening to the recording for the first time, many are horrified by their voice. This is due to the fact that people cannot recognize their own timbre. An outsider will not be surprised by anything, because the voice on the recording will be familiar to him.

After listening to your singing, you can hear falseness, which was not initially felt. If a person recognizes it, then he still has a hearing. Otherwise, you should not be upset. Most likely, coordination of hearing and voice can be developed by nature.

In order to finally make sure that there is a voice, you need to contact a professional musician or vocal teacher. It is clear that their services will cost a lot of money, but what can not be done in order to start a musical career. It is not necessary to contact specialists from higher educational institutions, you can also choose a teacher from a music school or college.

How to check if there is hearing and voice - expert comments

Do not give up music lessons, thinking that there is no hearing and voice. They just need to be developed. We will give a few recommendations on how to check if there is hearing and voice:

one person plays a note on the piano, the second listens to it and memorizes it. Then the keys will be pressed randomly until the second person hears the desired note. If you manage to determine the note by sound, then there is a rumor;
one person silently taps some kind of rhythm on the table with a pencil for ten seconds. The subject next tries to reproduce this rhythm. Over time, you can complicate the musical pattern;
if the subject knows how to play the piano, you can conduct a musical dictation. The teacher plays single sounds in turn. The subject tries to get his voice in unison with the sounds that he hears;
the vocalist plays the piano, the subject tries to write down the notes he hears in a notebook. The vocalist then checks for mistakes.

In the case when something does not work out, experts advise not to give up. Sooner or later it will turn out, the main thing is that there is a desire to develop. You just need to practice a little. Voice and hearing are inherent in man by nature. People who have them less developed will have to make a lot of effort to improve them.

A velvety or sonorous voice, the ability to touch a nerve with the help of his singing is a true skill. Some people have this gift by nature, others need to study long and hard in order to get even a little closer to the ideal. It also happens that a person has an ear for music, but the vocal cords are not sufficiently developed and the singing is not what we would like. Such people will be helped by long and hard training on the development of their voice. After all, the vocal cords are also muscles that can be developed and trained.

The main thing to remember when starting voice development exercises is the need for proper breathing. That's where you need to start training. After all, if a person breathes incorrectly, the strength of his voice will never reach the desired level. To learn how to breathe properly, you can try walking around the room, counting your inhalations and exhalations. On the first two steps - inhale, on the second - exhale. But this is only in the first days of classes. Gradually, you need to increase the intervals between inhalation and exhalation up to ten steps. The following exercise is also useful: you need to stand up straight, put your feet shoulder-width apart, and join your hands in the lock and raise them up. Bending back, inhale, and as you exhale, lean forward. When tilting, simultaneously with exhalation, pronounce various vowels: "a-a-a", "u-u-u", "o-o-o", "i-i-i", "e-e-e". Regular performance of these simple exercises is the first step in how to develop a voice for singing. It is advisable to perform these and subsequent exercises in front of a mirror in order to monitor how the diaphragm works.

For those who have set themselves the goal of how to develop a voice for singing at home, it is worth moving on to the following exercises - pronunciation of syllables. It is best to use such sound combinations that contain both voiced and voiceless consonants in combination with vowels. For example: thpi, thpe, thpa, thpo, thpu. If at first it is difficult to remember, then you can write them in advance on a piece of paper and read aloud. Also tongue twisters help to strengthen the vocal cords. There are a lot of them, so you can choose the ones that you like the most. For example: "Beavers wander into the cheese forests. Beavers are brave, but kind to beavers." It is best to find tongue twisters that contain different sounds and sound combinations. You need to pronounce them at a different pace: starting slowly and gradually increasing.

It is useful to read aloud various works: both poetry and prose. At the same time, you need to monitor diction and clearly pronounce each letter, learn to put logical stresses in the right places. It is better to do this by recording on a tape recorder so that you can listen to your voice and understand what mistakes are made in the process of reading. At first, you can read literature aloud for ten to fifteen minutes, but gradually increase the time to an hour or more.

Singing directly helps to develop the voice, starting from chants, ending with the performance of the musical works themselves. The chants can be very different: the same syllables that were spoken aloud, but hummed in a different key. Start low and end as high as you can. This way you can define your range. Sometimes normal breathing through the nose helps to lower the voice. Also for this purpose, a simple exercise called buzzing will help. You need to press your chin to your chest and just make a sound: "zh-zh-zh". If you perform buzzing every day, you can notice the result quite quickly. So, knowing these simple tricks on how to develop a voice for singing at home, you can make your voice more sonorous and strong.
