You can find piano note diagrams on the internet that can help you find the notes of the scales you need. Middle C can be found by looking at the black keys on a piano. Beginning at the very left of the keyboard, count each set of three black keys that are together. The white key to the left of the first black key in the fifth set is middle C. Sopranos can sing the notes B3 (one note below middle C) to C6 (high C) in the treble clef scale. You might be able to sing slightly lower notes or slightly higher, but if you’re most comfortable in this range, you’re a soprano. Mezzo-sopranos can sing from G3 (two notes below middle C) to A5 (two notes below high C). As with sopranos, you might be able to sing slightly higher or slightly lower notes, but if you’re a mezzo, this is your most comfortable range. Altos can sing from E3 to F5. Tenors sing from C3 to B4 in the bass clef scale. Baritones are most comfortable between G2 and G4 on the bass clef scale covering more than one octave. Bass singers can sing the scale between D2 and E4 on the bass clef scale.

You can also find good warm up songs on websites like Total Choir Resources. They’re short, simple songs that are easy to learn and are good for all voice types.

Avoid singing the song all the way through until the end of your practice session. Otherwise, you might go on autopilot and not really pay attention to what you’re doing. Pay attention to everything about each section you practice. Learn the melody well, but think about the lyrics, too. Make sure you really have your own understanding of what you’re singing.

A great way to study other singers is by singing along with them. It can help improve your tone and technique.

If you like one singer’s particular style of singing, you can type the name of the song, followed by “karaoke, in the style of” and then the artist’s name.
