Top 10 Mistakes When Learning or Teaching Vocal Jazz

[@elijahhenderson3505]

Yesssssss I’m was talking to an R&B singer about all these concept and why they weren’t a jazz singer just cause they can riff through a standard but I only knew cause I had the best vocal jazz instructor

Exactly @elijahhenderson3305! One of the misconceptions is that singers who can riff in another genre, can do the same thing over jazz and it works. Not always so. As you know, they often miss notes that their ear misses because they have not learned the sounds of the jazz chords, and therefore can't access them when singing. They may hit a few by luck, but always get "stuck" singing the same notes that don't work and they are not aware. Thanks for your comment!
