Sight Singing – Opera Singers,Consevetoire Students,Singing teachers, Help!
How do you develop sight singing skills for bass and contrapuntal textures and Imitation?
I need to learn this for my aural component of my upcoming piano exam!
1) How do you sing the lower part of the score while being accompanied by the upper part ? I know about the solfa system but it doesnt seem to work when I’m out there trying to sightsing music thrown at you on the spot.
2) I am having problems singing contrapuntal textures.It is hard to listen to yourself sing when there are so many simultaneos layers of music(or even just 2 layers ie Bach) If it is hard to listen to yourself singing, How do you sustain your concentration ? I am always catching the melody instead of the bass and I tend to sing melody instead, when I m suppose to sing the lower part.
3) How do you warm up before singing to produce a beautiful tone? Is there some things you dont eat before practising singing?
Pls help, thanks a lot!

LiTTLE MiSS SUNSHiNE ♥{ORiGiNAL} asked: In a few weeks I’ll be audtioning for the Junior South East District, a choral program in my area for middle school and highschool students. Im in the eighth grade, I’ve been in my school’s chorus since the fifth grade and I play guitar and some piano so I have knowlage of music etc.
I’ll be audtioning as a soprano. There’s a song you have to sing, and then sight reading.
Generally speaking I have a pretty voice, but not a talented singer’s voice. When I’m playing my guitar or just singing to the radio for fun it sounds good, but I’m not as good at formal singing. I’m able to stay on key and sight read well but I can’t seem to project my voice to make it sound strong enough.
Tips..Help?
