She also jumps in and out of melody. And hardly does the main harmony so if you do sing melody with her, it hardly blends. Harmonies are usually sung close to the melody that they blend so well you can’t hear them apart from the melody itself. However, she is VERY talented and has presented a great challenge.

[@vivianh7391]

I have to respectfully disagree. Harmony doesn't really focus on note distance other than the interval and that wont determine if it blends or not. What determines blend is more tonality where your voice sits on a note and in your mouth. Notes can have a slightly sharper or flatter tone (ergo the choir idea of "sitting on top of the note"). If people sing together and sing in different "parts" of the note, it may not blend so well. Its similar with vocal placement (someone singing with a brighter or darker tone). There's a lot more than just notes that play into harmony. Her harmony aligned with the chords of the songs for all of the songs that I knew, so they all work if you have a voice that blends with hers.

[@slothia3559]

i agree

[@dylanritter5726]

It’s hard for beginners to do this when she is jumping in and out

[@Mo-nj2hp]

Personally, I actually like it when the harmony is a melody in and of itself. But I respect that not everyone feels that way :-)

After 10 years of building the Show-orchestra I grew up in is falling apart, just like the vocal ensemble which was sort of part of it. I was the solist. We’ve got two concerts left… I was crying tonight, crying today, crying a lot before. Hadn‘t got an opportunity to harmonize again with somebody, to show my voice again. Don’t want to join an other ensemble since it’ll never be the same. It will be an other tearing-apart, senseless. We had huge sponsors, concerts all around Lower Saxony, it’s all dying as we, one After the other, leave. Not everybody could find a place to study what they wanted to in our city. Today I found this video… I was singing at the top of my lungs, would have been even a bit too much impro for a concert… I miss it so much, about to cry again. Thank you for that video. Sincerely, an ex-mezzosoprano from Germany. RIP Orchestra Panorama

This is lowkey such a great way to practice singing with other people. My friend group (specifically the mellos) are really good singers, half of them are in the top choir at our school and everytime we hang out, they start harmonizing and it’s BEAUTIFUL. During hangouts or parties, we end up doing karaoke and I was like, it’d be great if I could keep the melody or even harmonize with them. They do it easily, but I struggle with it. I can sing easily by myself (everyone can lol) but with even one other person, it’s difficult to keep your part and not jump in with the others. Playing an instrument, I used to struggle with that back in middle school, now Ofc playing your part even around several other people who aren’t playing your part, is super easy, I also did choir back in middle school, but again, this was all in middle school. Anyways, LOVE THIS even though I suck at it lol I sometimes also practice with my mom since she was also a top singer in her classes in college and HS,

[@elliemesa]

[@tega_aror]

haha if you’re in choir, or in musicals, or generally just have a strong sense of tonality, this really isn’t much of a challenge 😛 we call this rehearsal where i’m from 😌

[@tega_aror]

@None of your Business Yeah I can see how it may be difficult to learn how to instinctively harmonize, even when you’re in a choir. My advice is always to listen, listen, listen! Look for patterns in recorded harmonies. One of the most basic types of harmony is singing the interval of a major third (M3 or +3) above the melody. Once you’ve established that common pattern in your ear, you can try for more complex harmonies. I suggest practicing over songs that you know very well first! I know you didn’t ask for advice, but I’m a college music student, so I thought I would comment some anyway 😛

[@jaebumsexypabo953]

Yesssss!!!!I I agree on that hahaha

[@OMGitsKristinaxD]

Exactly!

[@morganalewis4455]

This kind of supports what I say all the time about melodies and harmonies. The melody, while it’s the part that people listen to cause that’s what they recognize, is the baseline, the home where the song rests and stays throughout. The harmony’s job, on the other hand, is to make the song interesting. It gets to go wherever it wants so long as the baseline is strong enough to come back to. Harmonies are not lesser than melodies or vice versa, they are both equally important in giving structure to music.

[@ninagaby99]

Ah, thank you!! this is PERFECT: exactly. what i wanted. and needed.

[@sierrasimon8633]

Being an alto this is actually so hard because I’m always used to being the one to harmonize😭

[@samlecookie2691]

Okay I can't be the only one thinking this... I've been in choir for YEARS but yet these harmonies are confusing the hell out of me. They just aren't quite right and it keeps making me doubt whether I'm on the wrong note (I don't think I am). Once I find the right note 100%, the piece will go on and it'll just get wonky with her harmonization. I'm not really sure what's going on here, but she does have incredible talent! Her voice is beautiful ❤ TLDR she's amazingly talented but these harmonies are not right

[@97LauraLee]

Yes some were just a little bit too extra to harmonize to and some were a little off. But this was so much fun.

Yeahh like what junkless said, just try to focus on your melody. You can press on one side of your ear when you sing so you can hear yourself singing better which helps :) Edit: knowing and holding your note in your mind or just humming it before she starts help as well I wouldn’t worry too much. Even people in choir accidentally sing the wrong notes, especially altos standing next to sopranos 😂

ya don't focus on her AT ALL (other than speed), practice bringing the attention mostly to your own voice, something that also helps me is to hear the song in my head and how it's supposed to be sung. also just practising signing the melody with the actual song.

Even if you're singing it correctly, she's adding vibrato and additional vocalisations and whatnot, so it ends up sounding like she's singing the melody and I'm harmonising.
