Singing technique

Hello, everyone. I have created a new topic about sining technique. I'm looking for someone willing to help me to improve my singing technique. Never have I been trained vocally only instrumentally. Feel free to respond. I am enclosing my singing sample. I'm welcome to your suggestions and advice. The song i will enclose is my own composition.

paula, start learning jazz vocal

Well,hopefully I will.

The only suggestion I can make is that you need to be bolder. You have a lovely voice and just need to sing up a bit. Your playing is jazz oriented and therefore the suggestion from bomberman.

I love the chord progression in your piece!

Thank you very much, Charles! By the way, do you sing jazz, too?

No, I sing some gospel, country, easy listening and some random bits. I'm a has-been musician, used to work professionally, when I could find work, which wasn't often. I tuned pianos to survive as well.

Ohh, that's fantastic! Would you like to work on mygeneral singing abilties?

I can give you tips as I see them, and thanks for adding me by the way. I've reciprocated.

Thank you. Will you be warming up my voice, too at the beginning?

In your opinion, how many times would you like to see me to ractise?

Don't practice enough so you strain your voice, but practice enough so that you feel improvement in range, pitch, endurance and such. Daily practice is good, but if you ever notice you're sliding or in a slump, give yourself a break. This is kinda hard but try not to be too hard on yourself. This is something I struggled with for awhile during my career.

Incidentally, I didn't do voice warmups very often, so I'm probably not the best one to ask about this.

Ahh, I see. May we talk about it via voice chat? THis recording was made some years ago.

Well golly, you may have improved since then, lol.

We can voice chat at times I suppose.

I will record something new so that you could see how big there was improvement. :) And oh, yes, if you have opportunity and time, of course.

In lieu of the chat I'll send a recording of the exercise we've discussed, at some point, hopefully soon I can do this.

That song is great,Are you using a Yamaha keyboard to play this song?

Here is what I have with my voice. Feel free to give me sugestions and if there is somebody who can work with me, no problem. :)

Well done, and this song fits your voice, or vice versa, he he! The only thing I can find to suggest for now is to remember to get closer to the mike on lower notes. And, of course, you want to stay centralized when using a stereo mke as in this recording. Again, though, very well done!

Thank you very much, Charles. I have been trained systematically now by sighted vocal coaches from Nepal and from the USA.

Keep up the good work!
