Learn to Sing with Joett: Breathing & Descending Scales

I'm back with descending scales in this clip, with breathing as per usual. Never forget to breath properly! And then back to that gibberish line again "I could've been a writer, rain", but in a slightly different trajectory. This time I give it a clear cut descending slide and I show you how to do it 'in slow motion' at the very end of the clip. Enjoy!

Singing Lessons: Focus On Improving What You Already Have

This article is going to be a pretty twisted article in that, although it is intended to motivate you, it may well do quite the opposite. When you're potentially a good singer, with training, you could improve on that and the sky truly is the limit. However, when your singing ability is average--like I've seen so many in my line of work--you can only develop and improve your voice from that point on, but mind you, you will have limitations. The trick is to accept it and to work with what you've got within the boundaries of your ability. Nothing more, nothing less! Don't try to be what you can't be. But instead, design your musical works to suit your style and ability. Don't even attempt to go beyond that. It'll only lead to anger, disenchantment and frustration. There's nothing wrong with pushing the envelope but KNOW your limitations.

I've watched aspiring singers pop into my studio for singing lessons over the years, and I've seen firsthand how working with what you've got is the best approach. Not everybody can be the best in the world. There's no such thing. Ever! But you can do it your own unique way, and do it properly, AND get away with it. Now with that in mind, I'm going to suggest a few simple tricks that can, if you exercise a lot of patience and perseverance, improve your voice beyond what you know to be the limit of your ability. Try listening to good music! Seriously, this may sound a little patronizing but it CAN do wonders for your voice. Allow good music with great vocals to surround your home. Put the music on very low volume when you go to bed and let that whisk you into the depths of sleep. Your subconscious mind will pick up the music while you sleep, and with time, you may become the singer you want to be by simply listening to great music in your sleep. And if you combine this with a proper vocal training program by day, you will tremendously improve your singing voice. Of that I am certain.

I'll tell you an interesting story. I've got a young student whom, when I first heard him sing I thought, for crying out loud this dude is good! He sounded amazing. Yes, he needed training, and he knew that he did, but then he already had a natural talent. When I dug deep into his past, I discovered that his dad had been a DJ in the 1980s and that when the kid was growing up, not only did his dad play music from the 80s, 70s and 60s around the house, the boy went to bed with the music playing in his bedroom throughout the night on low volume. Henceforth, the music and singing style became him. That was the foundation that this lad had had from a very early age. The bottom line is, if you listen to good music (AND you have a bit of talent), you will become it. You see, the truth is, you are the instrument! If you listen to the pros, you too can become LIKE the pros. The way I see it, we humans were on this planet first, and then we invented the musical instruments.

Learn to sing with Joett: Breathing & Chromatic Scales

Wanna know how to bend a note with remarkable ease and control? Watch my new instructional video on youtube! In this video, I sing a couple of lines "I could've been a writer, rain". (Gibberish, really. Meaningless sentence. But it illustrates a point). After a quick breathing exercise and part of a chromatic scale exercise, I show you how to sing those two licks. Great fun! Keep practicing. And if you think you've nailed it, record it and send me an MP3 via email. I'd love to hear from you!

Sing to Piano Chord Progressions to Develop Your Own Unique Style

Singing is great fun...when you have melody and are able to work with piano chord progressions as you hear them. It's about feeling the music and letting yourself go. I've added an additional training program to my private lessons at my voice studio in Oysterbay, so that you can do just that. There are country, jazz, pop, R&B, blues and generic demos you'll have a chance to sing along to, and then there will be the solo segments where it's just YOUR voice and the piano. And what I like about this is that there are no lyrics. So it's really up to you whether you choose to hum or whatever. And there is no language barrier with this one either. If you're only comfortable with Kiswahili, then that's OK. These exercises have no particular language. Anything goes. I'm really very excited about this new program which, like the Learn to Sing with Joett Booster Program, will fit into ANY of my seven programs: Beginners 1, Beginners 2, Intermediate, Advanced, Pro, Pro2 and Pro Club.

Hope to see you soon!

Learn to Sing with Joett Vocal Training CD Video Presentation

What makes this program particularly unique AND useful, is that, unlike many vocal training programs on the market today, it is based on the song I Could Never Live (Without Your Love) by Joett, and requires you to do the scales within both a vowels and lyrical setting. Vocal exercises prepare the voice, now with lyrics and a song thrown into the mix, applying your newly acquired skills gets a whole lot easier. Because, as you will also be training with the scales in a lyrical setting, when it comes to singing any other song…be it pop, soul, R&B, jazz, gospel etc. it should be dead easy to apply the scales to whatever you want to sing because you will have done it before…in a song. These exercises basically hit two birds with one stone. I wanted to make it easier for you to learn to sing from the comfort of your own home—without a vocal coach present, AND get results.

Package includes 3 FREE Joett singles (Color Me Beautiful, I Could Never Live (Without Your Love), Heaven Said) with backing tracks. And if you're in Dar es salaam, you're also entitled to a free voice assessment and advice on how to use the program. BUY Learn to Sing with Joett CD Online from TripleClicks.
