Hi guys, im new here and i really want to improve my voice. I have had no prior vocal lessons so I really would appreciate any type of feedback. I love this song and really wanna learn how to sing it well. And sorry for the weird faces especially in the beginning 😭

@timid cedar can you please help me out when you get the chance? No rush, but your feedback is always so good 🫡

Of course! I'd love to help.

Now when it comes to the beginning stages of our singing journey, we want to make sure we get down the basics.

Those are what's called the fundamentals of Singing.

Consisting of
Pitch
Tone,
Technique( breath support, vibrato etc)
Diction
Dynamics

To start, those are the key elements that need training.

So I'd recommend starting with the basics.
We do have a learning corner in our server, with additional information on the fundamentals of Singing and good exercises for the perfect "starter kit" I'd recommend checking it out and starting with what you're most comfortable with.

However!! Important side note because I like our singers to be happy and healthy.

No more than 1 hour of training a day, divided into at least 2 different sessions. Overworking the voice, as with every muscle, will give you sore muscles. The same happens to your voice. Therefore, at the first sight of tension in your throat, I'd recommend stopping to prevent damaging the very delicate vocal chords.

Happy learning
