How to practice vocal harmony? pt.1
“There is music wherever there is harmony, order, or proportion.” -------Thomas Chandler Haliburton
Vocal harmony exemplifies the importance of harmony in music. The overlapping and consonance of multiple voices brings out the multiple layers of a song. It adds richness and depth to a song that would surely move your audience. However, our music mentoring experience told us that learning vocal harmony is no easy task. Very often, students are disturbed by the lead vocal and struggles to keep up with the keys of the harmony.
Singing harmony is a skill many budding young singers dream to acquire. It takes the correct methods, in addition to enough practice and time. But as a all-rounded music training center and a guardian of your dreams, we Sing and You would not live you in the muddy water! Enhance your harmony-singing skill through the following steps!

Step 1: Find out the exact melody of the harmony voice.
This part is obvious. Pay attention to the tune and rhythm of the track.
Step 2: Listen to the harmony voice repeatedly.
Listen to the melody of the harmony repeatedly. Then, try to recreate the exact tune and rhythm with your own voice. Repeat until you are totally familiar with the harmony before advancing to the next step.
Step 3: Add the main vocal of a low volume as you practice
After your are familiar with the vocal harmony, start playing the main vocal at a small volume as you practise. This step could be done in multiple ways.
If you are practising by your own…
Method 1: Play the main vocal from your phone at a low volume. When singing harmony, you should be hearing your own voice and just a tiny bit of the lead vocal.
Method 2: The method applies to earphone and headphone users. Play the main vocal for the left ear and the harmony vocal for the right ear. Pull your left earbud further from your ear to reduce the main vocal’s volume.
Method 3: If you are practising with your partner, let your partner sing the main vocal at a small volume as you sing along with the harmony vocal. Try to get used to the existence of main vocal and keep the harmony voice in tune.

有人說:音樂的本質就是協調、規律和平衡。學習唱和聲正是這句話的體現,人聲的重疊、共鳴為樂曲帶出層次感,產生出獨唱難以達到的感染力!但很多學唱歌的學生的經驗告訴我們:這並非一件簡單的事。尤其是即使知道和聲要唱什麼旋律,還是會被主旋律帶跑,造成走音,抓不著和聲的旋律。
要怎樣練才可以在唱和聲時不被主旋律帶跑,抓不到音呢?
練習和聲沒有一步登天的方法,而是需要時間,按步就班的。但只要按以下步驟練習,你一定能更快練成!

第一步:知道要唱的和聲旋律是什麼
你先要知道你要唱的那一段和聲旋律是什麼。
第二步:聽熟並且唱熟要唱的和聲旋律
重復聆聽該段旋律,並嘗試分毫不差的重唱一次。在進入下一階段前,你必須唱到準確且滾瓜爛熟。
第三步:唱熟和聲旋律後,逐漸加入主旋律,從低音量開始慢慢練習。這時你聽到的主旋律只有一點點。
自己練的話……
方法一:就是以非常低音量把主旋律播出,聽到的主要是自己唱出來的和聲。
方法二:把主旋律放在左聲道,和聲旋律放在右聲道。一開始把左耳的耳機拉遠一點,聽到的主旋律就較小聲。
與伙伴一起練的話……
方法三:如果你想和合唱的伙伴一起練的話,就請唱主旋律的人一開始唱小聲點,使唱和聲旋律的人習慣有一點點的主旋律。
