Learn Exercises

🎤🎤 HOW TO HAVE A NICE VOICE 🎼🎶 📌 PROJECTING YOUR BEST VOICE 🗣🎵 🎙🎙 Season 2. Episode 5. LEARN EXERCISES 🎶🎤 Learn exercises to relax your voice. If your voice isn't relaxed, you're going to be speaking from your throat instead of your diaphragm, and your voice will come out tense, harsh, and forced. Follow this method several times a day to relax your voice: ●Start by placing your hands on your throat and talking normally, noting any tightness in your throat and jaw. ●Make a big yawn and let your jaw fall as low as it will comfortably. End the yawn by saying "ho-hum." Continue the "hum" for several seconds with your lips shut, and as you do so, move your jaw from side to side and let it hang a little. Do this several times. ●Say the words "hang," "harm," "lane," "main," "lone," "loom." Exaggerate your facial movements as you do so. Yawn again whenever your throat gets a little tired. ●Use your fingers to softly knead your throat muscles. ●Relax your throat as your repeat the following sounds slowly: "nay," "nay," "nee," "no," "noo."

Open your mouth and jaw

🎤🎤 HOW TO HAVE A NICE VOICE 🎼🎶 📌 PROJECTING YOUR BEST VOICE 🗣🎵 🎙🎙 Season 2. Episode 4. OPEN YOUR MOUTH AND JAW 🎶🎤 Practice talking with a more relaxed mouth and jaw. The best way to do this is to practice on your own, exaggerating the normal movements of your face as you speak. Open your mouth wide when you make "oh" and "ah" sounds, and let your jaw move low. Add this to your daily voice practice routine. For live lessons and interactive class join us on whatsapp via https://chat.whatsapp.com/K4ZqbmJyafn0d4sBLKXZ8r

Wacth your pitch

🎤🎤 HOW TO HAVE A NICE VOICE 🎼🎶 📌 PROJECTING YOUR BEST VOICE 🗣🎵 🎙🎙 Season 2. Episode 3. WATCH YOUR PITCTHES 🎶🎤 Depending on where your natural pitch and pitch variety are right now, you may need to work on this a lot, or just a little. Work on your overall pitch by consciously trying to speak in a lower tone, as often as you can remember. It's important to do this gradually though, just around a half-tone lower at a time. Work on your pitch variety by injecting different pitches in your sentences to add interest and emotion. Two ways to practice this are the following exercises: ◆Practice saying a two syllable word over and over with varying pitch changes. There are four types of pitch changes, rising pitch, falling pitch, rising up then down, and falling down then up. ◆Repeat a sentence over and over and change which word gets the emphasis. For example, say "I didn't sing off", first by emphasizing that it wasn't you who sang off, then by emphasizing the "didn't," then by implying that you sang something something else besides singing off, and then by implying that you sing rightly other than off.

Slow down

🎤🎤 HOW TO HAVE A NICE VOICE 🎼🎶 📌 PROJECTING YOUR BEST VOICE 🗣🎵 🎙🎙 Season 2. Episode 2. SLOW DOWN 🎶🎤 Slow down and lose the filler words. Faster speech will make you sound less confident, and will make you harder to understand. One way to improve the quality of your voice immediately is just to slow down. Practice by reading anything out loud, first with your normal speaking speed, and then slowed down. Another way to practice is to read off a list of numbers as if it were a long phone number, writing them in the air with your finger as you go. This is the ideal speed for natural, clear speech.

Improve your breathing

🎤🎤 HOW TO HAVE A NICE VOICE 🎼🎶 📌 PROJECTING YOUR BEST VOICE 🗣🎵 🎙🎙 Season 2. Episode 1. IMPROVE YOUR BREATHING 🎶🎤 Speech starts with breathe, so good speech starts with good breathing. Ideally you want to breathe from your diaphragm, slowly and steadily, at all times. Start practicing by placing a hand on your stomach and breathing deeply so that you stomach rises and falls with each breathe. Practice this several times a day. ◆Another breathing exercise you can do is to read a paragraph with a mix of long and short sentences. Use just one deep, single breathe for each sentence, exhaling gradually as you read out loud. Then take a breathe and start the next sentence. This is just an exercise to improve breathe strength. This isn't how you should try to talk normally. For live lessons and interactive class join us on whatsapp via https://chat.whatsapp.com/K4ZqbmJyafn0d4sBLKXZ8r

Decide how you want your voice to be

🎤🎤 HOW TO HAVE A NICE VOICE 🎼🎶 📌 EXAMINING YOUR CURRENT VOICE 🗣🎵 🎙🎙 Season 1. Episode 3. DECIDE HOW YOU WANT YOUR VOICE TO BE 🎶🎤 Look at your notes about your voice and its weak spots. Then think about how you want your voice to be in comparison. Not everyone is going to have the same goal voice. For example, women with particularly low and raspy voices might want to raise their overall pitch and achieve a smoother vocal quality, while men with high, fast voices might want to slow down and deepen their speech.

Record your voice

🎤🎤 HOW TO HAVE A NICE VOICE 🎼🎶 📌 EXAMINING YOUR CURRENT VOICE 🗣🎵 🎙🎙 Season 1. Episode 2. RECORD YOURSELF VOICE 🎶🎤 To get a better sense of what your current voice is like, you need to record it and listen to it. This may not be fun, as a lot of people don't like the sound of their recorded voice, but this is much closer to what people actually hear when they listen to you. Record your voice using audio software like Garageband, and then play it back and listen for the details that make up your vocal profile, your volume, articulation, quality, pitch, variation, and speed. ■Recording and listening back to your voice will allow you to get an enlightening, objectively look at what your really sound like to others. Take note of the flaws in your speaking voice, from mumbling, to filler words, to a nasally quality, and more. Write down everything you notice.

Examine your current voice

🎤🎤 HOW TO HAVE A NICE VOICE 🎼🎶 📌 EXAMINING YOUR CURRENT VOICE 🗣🎵 🎙🎙 Season 1. Episode 1. UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENT FACTORS THAT MAKE UP A VOICE 🎶🎤 The first step towards improving your voice is to get a good sense of what your voice is like now. There are six main categories that make up someone's vocal profile: ■Volume: How loud do you speak? ■Articulation: Do you slur your words or mumble? ■Voice quality: Is your voice nasally, breathy, or raspy? ■Overall pitch: Do you speak in a shrill, high tone or a deep, low pitch? ■Pitch variation: Do you speak in a monotone voice? ■Speed: Do you speak too quickly or slowly?

TUNJIFORTRESS 2 YEARS ANNIVERSARY

_HALLELUYAH!_ !!!!!🕺💃🏻🎤🎼🎹🥁🎷🎺🎸🎻📒🖊🎵🎶 COME LET US CELEBRATE. .... *TUNJIFORTRESS* IS *2 YEARS* TODAY GLORY TO GOD! !!!

Take a break

🎵📕 KEYS TO PIANO SUCCESS 🎹🎹 🎹🎹🖊 Season 1. Episode 5. TAKE A BREAK 🎶🎹 Remember to take a break. Piano players often wonder how much practicing should be done per day. But what matters more is the quality of the practice. You should organize your practice time so you have a sense of purpose and direction, as well as a way to measure your improvement. Since piano playing is mentally and physically exhausting, over-practicing can actually slow down your progress. When you keep making the same mistake in the same spot over and over, take a break. Go for a walk. Eat something. Do a little stretching. You’ll notice that after a few hours, you’ll find it easier to concentrate again and that little problem spot might just disappear. For aspiring pianists, these tips can help you make the most of your practice time. If you follow these guidelines and work on your piano skills consistently and diligently, you’ll be amazed at your rapid progress.

Find Efficient fingering

🎵📕 KEYS TO PIANO SUCCESS 🎹🎹 🎹🎹🖊 Season 1. Episode 4. FIND EFFICIENT FINGERING🎶🎹 If you are a novice, don’t be ashamed to write in the fingering on the score to help you learn it properly. This is an old pattern and it will aid in smoother playing and it is very important for more complicated passages. Practicing different scales is crucial so you know which fingers to use without having to think about it. Always remember to cross your thumb under your third finger to negotiate all the notes when playing scale-type passages (with a couple of exceptions, such as the F major scale).

Strong scale practice

🎵📕 KEYS TO PIANO SUCCESS 🎹🎹 🎹🎹🖊 Season 1. Episode 3. STRONG SCALES PRACTICE🎶🎹 Practicing musical scales for each key signature is not very exciting, but it’s an important skill in piano playing. This will help you nail down your fingering habits and get a better sense of what notes are in each key. Having a strong foundation in understanding the scales will help you when you’re ready to start improvising. The more you know about note and key relationships, the easier it will be to simply choose a key and make up a tune as you go.

Practice with metronome

🎵📕 KEYS TO PIANO SUCCESS 🎹🎹 🎹🎹🖊 Season 1. Episode 2. PRACTICE WITH METRONOME 🎶🎹 Once you have mastered the tone and rhythm in slower sections, use a metronome in harder passages to gradually speed it up. This can help you develop the muscle memory and strength you need to play the part at the intended speed. It can also help you practice timing and tempo, and adjust your playing in accordance with the time signature. If there’s unevenness, make sure you go back to the first practice tip and get it right. This is particularly important for pianists as you need to master each hand’s part and the combination together. Many teachers will recommend working on each hand in isolation until you reach the target tempo (or even faster) before going back to slow practice, both hands together.

Focus on small parts first

🎵📕 KEYS TO PIANO SUCCESS 🎹🎹 🎹🎹🖊 Season 1. Episode 1. FOCUS ON SMALL PARTS FIRST 🎶🎹 Taking things slow when you first start out is essential for good playing. Break piano pieces up thoroughly and work diligently on small sections until you achieve the right tone and rhythm. Mark difficult passages and work on them separately.   Listen very closely to your playing and try to pinpoint any uneven parts. Practice these as many times as you can to strengthen your weaker fingers. If you feel any tension in your hand, though, stop immediately and take a break.
