Lesson 1: The Art of Singing

I. Preparing To Sing:

Singing is one of the coolest means of expression out there. Singing well
is about knowing how to work the parts that create the sound for singing.

The Voice – as our main instrument is considered as the most unique

among other musical instruments, why? Because it is the only musical
instrument that is built in our body, that’s why singers needs to be
physically fit and must maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Singers – are the ones performing the act of singing, they have the main
job to interpret and deliver the song to an audience. Singers need to
understand and dig deeper into their craft to master the art of singing.

II. Determining Your Voice Type

The first thing singers need to consider when they start singing is to
determine their voice type. They should be aware of their range and their
vocal tone. This will help them in choosing the songs that they are going
to sing.

a category to belong to.
