      kel m Yes, it is. If you have a piano or guitar it can really help to play the notes separately then together before you sing them. Sort of tune yourself into it.

If I could afford it I would totally hire you for singing lessons! I've rewinded through this video dozens of times and I'm going to learn this technique! Finally! A million thank you's!

      I was the same way, all I can tell you is the more you do it the better you get. However, now I'm stuck in a hole where I sing what I enjoy rather than what sounds better so the harmony normally sounds more like a minor chord

    • @TrillNoel
      @TrillNoel Před 5 lety +24

      Download a piano app. Play one key with the music. Eventually you will find one that works... then once you toy around with it youll find other keys to add. Work on finding one note that can be held then when you are ready try to add two or more. 3rds and 5th are your friends.

    • @SolarMumuns
      @SolarMumuns Před 5 lety +9

      Amanda Liu Yes, pianos/keyboards will help to visualize and remember the sound of the intervals (a major 3rd or perfect 5th or whatever). There are also ear-training apps available. Thirdly, sing along with songs that use basic harmony vocal lines like those in very early Beatles tracks, where it's just two or three people singing together. Try to pick out the melody and the harmony part(s). Lastly, play a simple melody on another instrument or record yourself singing and harmonise it yourself. Best of luck!

    I really appreciate these lessons. I was a classical flutist in high school and decided not to pursue a career in music. so I never learned a lot of music theory, only enough to read advanced flute music.since then I've done a lot of vocal work, sometimes reading music, sometimes learning Harmony's from CZcams for particular songs, sometimes improvising.
    I really appreciate the music theory and your lessons. Thank you!

    @viewer2114 Před 5 lety +6

    I actually learned how to harmonize on 4th grade without learning how to do it, I only need to know the melody part. I've been using the thirds technique without knowing it exists for 5 years! I helped around 5 people learn how to blend through hearing only, but it wasn't technical learning, and you have to consistently harmonize even in audio songs to not forget how to harmonize.

    Saher, I want to thank you very, very much. I can harmonize by ear, but it is so nice to be taught the theory behind it. Also it opens the door for many, many other options. I was bored with my cookie cutter harmony & as my girlfriend & I write music, it is so important because our original sound obviously makes or breaks the song.
