Developing Your Voice to Sing Better

Video Transcript

Hey! I am Mark Black and welcome to expertvillage.com. We are going to be talking about vocal performance. I firmly believe and many people believe that you are able to build your voice and lot of teachers take an approach that’s really more of a discovery process. “I am just trying to find out if you are talented, do you have talent? No, you don’t. Get out of here!” And I don’t believe that at all and I do not mean it because I am so cool. it doesn’t seem to be my experience. it seems to me that if you brought actually 10 favorite albums of your 10 favorite vocalist, yes three of them would be like “you know I was singing when I was 4,” all like this, but you know, six or seven of them are going to be like “you know, I work my butt off, I practiced, I was there on time,” and if you buy their biography, and certainly that is my experience in working with professional musicians that some of them are “yes I was talented” and that’s the most important thing in the world, but more people than that who seem to be just as good are people who work and succeeded and they develop themselves and work themselves. I am just telling you that because I want you to be encouraged I want you to try and develop your voice and not to look at it like, if you can hear the difference, from this note, and that this note, if you can tell which one of this is higher and lower then as far as I am concerned you can develop your voice. If you cannot hear the difference between those notes at all, which one is higher or lower, then you probably tone deaf, but again that is like one person at a 10,000 is actually tone deaf. Everybody else can develop their voice. Does that mean you are going to make an album? Does that mean people are going to be beating down your door? Not necessarily, but it may just mean that you can sing in a choir or you can sing for your family and sing for yourself and it will be a beautiful fun thing for you. So, I just want to tell you that I firmly believe in your ability to succeed and that working on things, especially if you get with the big teachers somebody that can encourage you and direct you, even if it is just for a season, that you can accomplish great things and that is a wonderful thing to do.
