- Do you not know if you’re singing on pitch? Do you have difficulty matching pitches when you sing? Do your super supportive friends and family lovingly tell you to to give up singing as they hold their fingers in their ears and scrunch their face like they just licked a lemon? (Sorry for that last one, some of my childhood singing scars have yet to fully heal.)
If any of this sounds like you, quit your pitchin’! In today’s voice lesson we are talking about ear training and how to sing on pitch. Where my pitches at, y’all!

I love love love this video! You're a great teacher. Thank you.
Very helpful, great exercises for someone who has sung all their life! Thank you!! :)
great lesson! thank you so much 🙏🙏
This is very cool getting to know what the basics of how to really listen by ear while singing within mostly our own vocal range because sometimes we all had our own challenges in our lives in general unlike for myself because I had so many issues with this all throughout my high school experiences since middle school I did choir and now that I have been following this channel it has been so helpful for just me personally but for many others that suffers from their own struggles I did in my life I still try encourage myself to get more better then I used to sound like
Another great video! I love the anatomical lessons that go with the exercises. Your tips have helped me get right on tone including the high notes which I learned from your lessons on using the nasal cavity and back of throat to use as a resonance chamber. Keep up the good work. :)
Super helpful!!!
I love your infectious positivity. Thank you Harvey.
Pitch tuning app advice was a game changer. I didn't realize I was so off! Thanks.

it looks like PanoTuner@@emmadieb

I wanna tell you something ma'am...thank you so much for your lesson and you look beautiful 🥺💖
❤thankyou
Good lesson
This is my first time watch your videos, and i love it! Can you tell me what pitch tune app that you use in this video? Thank you!
your lessons are really helpful. thank you! Do you teach online?
Excellent. Thank you. I am practicing with a metronome and wondering when sounding these notes is each not supposed to be near the zero in the center between the flat and sharp symbol.? Thank you for answering this question.
Great video! Have you tried using colour for pitch training?
Nice video
5:23 lesson
have piano tuner and pitch listening app handy
This is a great video. But now I am wondering what the best way to learn new songs is. I had always enjoyed learning new songs by singing along. Maybe I need to spend more time carefully listening before I start to sing?
This is a good exercise to train your ear to listen and sing pitches. If you want to improve on singing the song in the right pitch try recording yourself and improve the areas you need to fix bit by bit. Use the app she mentioned to tune your pitch as you sing each part in acapella.
Thank you for this advice. I will try!@@IzzyNChrist
What ap do you recommend there are so many choices out there and there when you open them they are not very good.
…I have a question regarding being on pitch. I know that it’s nearly impossible to be completely on pitch as a singer. You will nearly always be some cents away from the pitch.
I am at the point now where I have had two people telling me that I’m pitchy. One I didn’t know. The other is a producer, who I know has worked with some very big names and is known to be very nitpicking and I know he has made very skilled professional singers feel like they couldn’t sing. He did say that it was better than expected from my level.
I of course want to improve.
So I have asked 3 singing teachers (who all have good careers as singers) and some other amateur singers and a couple of musicians who have very good relative pitch bordering on perfect pitch. And they don’t think I’m pitchy. Perhaps occasionally, but they say even professional singers can be slightly off pitch and that you can hear it on many recordings before autotune.
One said that having a darker sound colour can make it sound to some people like you are out of pitch even if you are not.
I have tried practicing with tuner apps. And it seems that I’m normally within 10 cents and most times within a couple of cents…
So I’m wondering if I’m a lot out of pitch when I sing songs (if so it’s difficult for me to hear even when listening back to recordings of myself) or if my sound colour affects the perception or if these people who told me that I was pitchy just have a much better ear for small differences than most other people…
…so how much on pitch do you need to be if you sing pop, rock and that sort of thing for it to be perceived as on pitch, so you don’t make people’s ears bleed?
Also do the overtones that you invariably produce affect pitch perception? Because depending on the technique you use for a specific song you will have more or less overtones and it affects the sound colour and timbre obviously…
What was the app that you showed?
Pano tuner
Can we have a video on mix voice?
She has at least one!
I forgot to mention your comment in yesterday's live. Sorry. Our three part series on Master Your Mix is underway. Thanks for the suggestion, Bee Bee! ❤

Raise your hand if you saw major fourth and major fifth and thought - something ain't right here. 🤔 FYI to all people just learning theory those intervals are called Perfect Fourth and Perfect Fifth.
I'm a tenor but i don't how to start or how to understand tempo or pitch
confusion is normal when on a path you have never been on before
Good stuff. You are a help. But an instrumentalist 'has to FEEL (10:23/24) where the pitch is on the string' I don't think so. Hear is what you meant
we do actually have to “feel” tho (i mean actually feel the distance with our hands/fingers, and create muscle memory) because at one point we have to able to play accurately right away, not after the sound (by sliding our fingers around trying to find the correct pitch with our ears 😭)
