[@churchindangerberean3518]

Every piano player that works with singers should learn this, because a voice is not a piano. If you can teach a singer to relate their pitches this way, they can practice without a piano, but be ready to perform with the piano.

AnOstrichYoutubing - the band played Hallelujah and the choir sang with us last year at our chrismas concert but the band was so much louder than the choir and we were playing in a gymnasium so the acoustics were trash. Also the orchestra wasn’t a part of it. I don’t understand why they separate the band and orchestra, we should all play together like an actual orchestra.

[@rebeccasmith2362]

My choir director, we do major scale with numbers as well but we also choose 2 numbers to skip over so we actually have to pay attention and sing at the right time and the right notes and pitches etc. it’s really beneficial to learn how to skip around especially when you skip with mi , fa , sol since theyre quite similar and you can be off key easily

[@ZipplyZane]

It's impressive being able to do it just one beat off, but I like the harmonies better when it is two beats off, as you get lots of thirds.

Why not use solfege? 1 = do, 2 = re, etc.

[@fritz8498]

So you don't have to change the words when you change the key

[@ivanhendr]

@@fritz8498 you can use movable do (tonic is always do). Where I live we read vocal music by rewriting into numbers and learning the solfege that way. E.g. madahliturgi.wordpress.com/2010/09/14/o-holy-night-partitur-satb/

[@jordanpennell859]

it just depends on the teacher’s preference. i’ve met people who do numbers, solfege, and some who just sing “da” while sightreading. it’s all personal reference.

[@fritz8498]

vanno @vanno of course you can, I did that when I studied music theory. But movable Do is often mistaken with "I just sing all music like if it was in C major", numbers are more objective and it's more clear that what you are interesred in are the grades of the scales rather than the notes themself

[@ivanhendr]

@@fritz8498 hence we use numeric notation and sing the solfege. I understand this same method is also used in China. Either way has its pluses and minuses. Cheers.

[@blubird6346]

I know this in solfege! We do it in class quite often, usually splitting into voice parts and do a round, and thought the next group doesn't start until the first group has done 1 121. So instead of hearing 12 12 12 12, you hear 121 121 121 121 etc. We usually go straight from 123456787654321 to 8 878 87678 etc (in solfege of course) without a break in between. It's really fun to try and do the hand signs along
