Just released a major overhaul of my singing website. solfasinger.com. Here you can practice sight singing!
Sir, I'm very pleased to know the loving things of western music. I'm a student of Indian classical music. I'm getting broadly benefited by your wonderful lessons. Thank you for everything.

Thank you so much for this! I don’t know why this isn’t taught in school? I got thrown into sight-singing and aural tests at A-Level, having not had to do it before. Naturally, this terrified me and gave me the impression I was rubbish at it. Of course I was rubbish at it. I hadn’t done the elementary aural/sight-singing work that is required to be done in order to get to this level!! I have a really good ear so I’ve got by on that but I need to relate the sounds to what is written down. Curwen hand signs is a new thing to me and I just know they are going to help enormously. Thank you so much!
Helen, although a life long musician, I didn’t learn the hand signs until in graduate school and they have made such a difference. Very best to you as you jump in. ~Roger
saludos 🤝 cordiales maestro 👏👏 excelente y gracias por compartir algo de su conocimiento, 🙏 Dios le bendiga saludos🙋♂️ desde Los Ángeles California .

Thank you; I learned about Solfege back in high school, but I couldn't remember how to do it.
Stacey Posey, Thanks for commenting, I am glad that you found it useful :) ~Roger
thank you...the light just came on...
Glad it helped
I Just found your channel and it’s helping practice and get better at reading music! Thanks!
Karina, welcome! I hope these resources can help you😊
@@RogerHale they most definitely have helped. I recently joined my church’s choir so I’m dusting off my music reading skills and my voice. Also, my husband wants to learn music so he is a new viewer too 🤗 please keep doing what you are doing!
Where can I find the pdf?
You are best! thanks so much for your hard and free lesson !
You're very welcome! Very best to you! ~Roger
Kazi nzuri Sana ndugu asante sana
I am very inspired by your tutorials. I am just building up a community choir for church service. My major problem is how to get them to sing as one voice. I mean like each voice parts (soprano, alto, tenor, and bass) will sound like one person. What are the best tips or vocal exercises to gain the best tonal balance and intonation? I will greatly appreciate your help. May I have your email address, please?
very useful to me, I know do, re, mi......but not the others before, I'm learning the others here with this video. Thanks!
Thank you so much Maria
Just letting you all know that I published the first video--G Major: th-cam.com/video/ToD1XXupoxs/w-d-xo.html
Thank very much Dr. Hale.
You are very welcome Sister Rositha
Que sensacional 🤗
Thank you Nayane!
I find letter names astronomically easier to sightread
Hi Dr Hale, How to solve play&sing difficulties? Thank you so much
Can you change settings captions and pick option in hindi laungauge i don't understand. English because i am from India and i sing hindi songs
Is there any special software to write tonic solfa notation in a computer?
I really like this music notation software. It is open source and free of charge. As far as "writing" tonic solfa, you would just need to put it in the lyrics line. Use solfasinger.com as a reference. Hope this helps!
Nice video
Thank you Matthew!
Why "ti" instead of "si" and "so" instead of "sol"?
@desifromitaly, Thank you for your comment. Solfege varies from country to country and has transformed throughout history. You may use what ever system you wish, as long as you stay consistent to develop the necessary habits. Happy New Year! Best, Roger
@@RogerHale Thanks for answering. Happy New Year!

Sir I don't get it
اذا سمحت عندي سؤال.. هل يؤثر الغناء على المرأة الحامل المغنية؟
لقد عرفت بعض النساء اللواتي تغنين بشكل أفضل عندما تكون حاملاً. يمكن أن تعطي المزيد من الدعم الجوي للمغني. تتمثل إحدى الصعوبات في زيادة الارتجاع الحمضي (GERD) لدى بعض النساء. آمل أن يساعد هذا.
Poderia colocar no português Boa noite
