Want to challenge yourself? Here are some fun exercises to try to hone your skills as a musician:
1. Sing a familiar melody in a different mode. For example, if the song is in a Major key, try singing it in a minor key, flattening the 3rd and raising the 7th.
2. Sing 7 notes in whole steps. For example: A, B, C#, D#, F, G, A.
3. Try singing a melody with accompaniment, but one 1/2 step higher or lower. This one will drive you crazy!
4. Write down a random series of numbers (such as 1, 2, 7, 3, 6, 4) and then sing them.
