Answer 1

heres a tip: get out of choir, before its to late, it will engulf you!!!!!!

Answer 2

i'm 13 too and i'm in choir. i'm not in honor choir, just regular choir. i guess i sing okay but i've always wanted to have that strong black-girl voice. there's certain parts in your music that you take a deep breath for; and if there's a really long note, then prepare yourself right before it by taking a really deeeep breath, and sing your heart out, and try to not take breaths in the middle of the note. if there's a note that's too high or too low and you KNOW that you can't sing it, then fake it. let the others sing it for you. it works for me! make sure you give it your all, and sing loud, but not too loud. just perfect enough to have that amazing strong voice that shocks people when they hear you sing. and before a concert, don't drink coke because you'll sound hoarse. any other tips just ask i have a lot and i love to sing--

Answer 3

The best and the cheapest solution to learn how to sing is doing it over the internet. You should check out Aaron Anastasi's singing video lessons here: ( http://learnhowtosing.kyma.info ) The videos are very easy to follow and to my surprise extremely helpful even for advanced singers. For beginners I would have to say this is a gold mine. I was able to improve my singing, voice tone and range in just under two weeks and I am an advanced musician, been doing this for the last 7 years. I wanted to go to a singing teacher but that would have cost me too much. Internet is the best solution! You can easily learn how to sing online.

Answer 4

When breathing, breathe from your diaphram. That sounds weird, but it just means when you breathe, make sure your stomach goes out, not in. Sing from the back of your throat, and keep your vowels narrow. Like you've got an egg in your throat. Any other questions should probably be directed towards your choir teacher or whoever is conducting.

Answer 8

A = Airflow. Never hold your breath while singing. The airflow is what creates and carries your vocal tone, so keep it flowing. Avoid Clavicular Breathing and Belly Breathing -- instead, learn the proper way to breathe for singing, called diaphragmatic breathing. Fill the lower portion of your lungs as if you had an inner tube around your waist that you were evenly filling.Free Singing Tip A.

B = Breathing properly for singing requires the shoulders to remain down and relaxed, not rise with the breath intake. A singer will gain power to their voice by strengthening the muscles in their ribcage and back. Free Singing Tip B

C = Communicate the music's message. During performance it is very important to communicate the message of the song. If you make a "mistake" don't point it out to your audience. It is most likely they did not even notice. Free Singing Tip C

D = Diaphragmatic Support. Develop the strength and coordination of the diaphragm and become a pro at controlling the speed of the airflow released, the quantity of the airflow released and the consistency of the airflow released.

E = Elasticity of the Vocal Folds. The vocal tone is created as airflow bursts through the cleft of the vocal cords causing them to vibrate/oscillate. The vocal folds can lose elasticity due to misuse, lack of use and/or increase of age. Be sure to train your voice with vocal exercises on a regular basis to keep your voice in shape.

J = Jumping Jacks. If you are having trouble getting your body completely involved with singing, try doing some cardiovascular activities, like jumping jacks, for a few minutes before getting started again. Sometimes your instrument simply needs an airflow wake-up call. Free Singing Tip J

K = Know your limits. Don't sing too high or too low. Don't sing to the point of vocal fatigue. Never strain or push your voice. Doing so will not result in a higher or lower singing range, or a stronger voice, only a voice that has suffered undue stress. Free Singing Tip K

L = Low notes are often sung with too much airflow. Try decreasing your airflow to achieve a more natural, more relaxed tone.Free Singing Tip L

M = Mirror. Training in front of a mirror can help a singer discover many things about their instrument, as well as confirm that other actions are being done correctly. Be sure to rely on a mirror during vocal training, but be able to leave the mirror to face an audience. Free Singing Tip M

S = Sing through the vocal breaks. If you do not teach the muscles the necessary actions to sing through the trouble spots, success will never be achieved. Sing through it, sing through it again, and again.... Free Singing Tip S

T = Tone Placement. Learning the facts about tone placement and resonance make a huge difference in the abilities of a singer. In simple terms, a singer has numerous body cavities (nasal cavity, chest cavity, etc.) and amplifiers (bones, ligaments, etc.) that act as resonators. Focusing the vocal tone through the proper resonating chamber with the proper support is important with regard to controlling and developing your personal sound. Singing Tip T
