Week 4 • April 22, 2020

Rather than reposting things, I'd recommend that you review the ear training and other exercises from previous weeks.  Continue working on  "A Place in the Choir".  I have also added an accompaniment track (careful . . . it's fast) that you can try singing with.  It starts with a 2-bar intro.
This week the featured choir pieces are:

All That Jazz
Feed the Birds

Theory

Lesson 9
Lesson 10
Lesson 11
Lesson 12

Ear Training • Sight Singing

There are audio tracks for each page of the ear training exercises.  For "Rhythm • Let's Begin", be sure to feel the pulse of all notes that are longer than one beat, as indicated at the top of the page.  There is a one-bar rest between exercises, so keep the pulse going in your head going from one line to the next.

For the pitched exercises, I would like you to try to do them using Solfege (do, re, me, fa, so, etc.).  If need be, you can write in the syllables or just use d, r, m, f, s when you're first trying this out.  Eventually, as you learn to read the notes better, you won't need to write the syllables in.

On each page there are notes about lines that can be sung simultaneously.  As an extra challenge to yourself, try playing one exercise while singing it's partner exercise.  This will really help you develop your ear, especially for singing harmony.

Hi ladies, 
As a continuation of last week, here's the video again. I watched it again, and it's good. :)

Here's something funny to watch. NOT giving you any ideas though. :)

We'd both be interested in your feedback.

Take care . . . and stay safe.
