 I would really like to sing but I’ve always been so shy singing in front of others even my fiance hasn’t heard me sing (after 3yrs together!) I can hear pitch good enough, I can play guitar a bit. I sometimes sing when I’m on my own and know what note I’m aiming for but I usually can’t get there. Is it possible to learn to sing, maybe have lessons with someone who understands my problem or is singing something you either can or can’t do. For me, it depends on how you start, to be quite honest. I feel like anyone can, they just have to have the right KIND of drive in order to start something and succeed. Like, if you really want this and feel like you know where to find your flaws and what to work on, then yes, you probably can, but if you just start for the sake of you think it is a last chance for a little fun and it’s something that you have to be perfect in, then you probably won’t get very far! I’m still in high school, but I like to work with people who have the right kind of motivation and simple outlook of, "What can I fix?" as opposed to, "Make me PERFECT!" It’s easier and much more effective and the kids I teach do much better than the perfectionists. I hope you try this, and I hope you do well.

I want to learn how to sing back up or like harmonize while listening to other people sing. I already searched how to videos on youtube but no luck there so don’t bother sayin youtube unless you give me a specific link to a video that works and answers my question. Thnx

i like singing taylor swift and other voices similar, like soft and airy so its easier to play along with guitar. anyway, some warm up tips would be helpful and just advice in general. is it good to drink liquers before you sing???? p.s- drinking some herbal tea with honey in is good for your throat and helps to clear it. Also peppermints, as you know, help to clear your nose and throat therefore allowing your voice project without difficulty. hope this helped

And being able to hit alto notes is definitely beautiful, I’ve always wanted to sing Tina Dico songs which require a fairly lower range. Best of luck BTW, check out youtube for exercises etc.

Here are some pointers to help you on your journey in learning to play the piano: 1. Take some lessons with a good classical teacher. 2. Use the Hanon exercises (especially the scales and arpeggios) to gain finger dexterity and to know the correct piano fingering of the scales and arpeggios. Always use a metronome when you’re doing these exercises to develop your sense of timing. If you don’t have a metronome try putting an accent on the “one” count of every sixteenth note (e.g. ONE,two,three,four; ONE,two,three,four…etc…). 3. After learning the basics/rudiments of playing the instrument, find another teacher who can teach you how to play the chords (a good jazz piano improvisation teacher will do!) and how to improvise. 4. Master the five qualities of chords (major seventh, dominant seventh, minor seventh, half-diminished, and the diminished seventh) their inversions, arpeggios and scales. 5. Try to apply what you are learning to your favorite songs especially jazz standard songs even to some classical music pieces. You can use songbooks, fake books, real books and music sheets, which are readily available at your local music stores or online. 6. Listen to all types of music and try to transcribe phrases/passages/riffs/licks or songs that interests you. Listen to piano players – the way they play, improvise and learn from them. Try to read their biography to learn how they study, practice, who influenced them and their achievements. I believe these can help to make you a well-rounded piano player. 7. Play with other musicians or join a band in your school or in your neighborhood. 8. Try to sing the melody of the song you are playing (you might have a hidden talent in singing) or if you are improvising, sing (scat) what you are playing. 9. Buy some piano lesson books, magazines, piano lesson videos, piano lesson software or CD-ROM. 10. Practice, practice and practice! Carlos Semilla

To be able to play a musical instrument well is a very satisfying emotional experience. The experience is even more edifying if you are good enough to play in a good band or playing backing for a singer whether professionally or just for the fun of it. So, if you want to learn how to play a musical instrument, which instrument should you pick up? Well, if you are asking me, then I would say, learn how to play the piano. The next question would then be, why should you learn how to play the piano as the first choice over so many other musical instruments? Well, here are some reasons why you should pick the piano over the other instruments. See if you agree. For starters, just like I said earlier, being proficient in playing a musical instrument is a very satisfying experience and that is why everyone should learn how to play at least one instrument and make beautiful music. Playing the piano proficiently makes you feel and look sophisticated and elegant. For some unknown reason, a pianist just exudes some kind of elegant charm more than other musicians, don’t you think so? Furthermore, playing the piano keeps our brain active and our brain is actually doing mental exercises on all ten fingers when we consistently throw it the musical language to interpret. There are studies which show that pianists are more mathematically gifted too. Also, learning how to play the piano can kill boredom. If you do not have anything to do, go and tickle the ebonies and ivories. Better yet, serenading to yourself while you are at it. Yes, I know you can do that with the guitar, but which instrument will produce a fuller and complete sound? Perhaps you can organize family gatherings or entertain- your friends at a party with all of you having fun with you direct sing along sessions. That would be fun wouldn’t it? Also, in a strange way, some people will actually respect you more and even think that you are a genius. Many people actually admire someone who can play the piano well. Perhaps you too and that is why you want to learn how to play the piano. A good pianist never quit learning. You see, there is absolutely no way to memorize every song and if you can play by ear, you are learning new tunes every time whenever you hear a tune without you even aware of it until someone ask you whether you can play a certain song and although you have never learnt that song before, the tune just pops into your head with your fingers running elegantly over the piano keys. I supposed deep down in most people, they wished that they are able to play the piano. If not, why are you reading this article? Do you know that learning how to play the piano is one of the most common New Year resolution? Learning to play the piano proficiently is also a fantastic ego booster. There’s no better feeling like playing a difficult song effortlessly and flawlessly. If you are thinking of picking up a musical instrument, why not choose to learn how to play the piano? Chris Chew
