God its so frustrating when you can hear the harmonies in your head but can't sing it. I'm usually so off but can hear the harmony coming together in my head.

Yeah, it happens! Do you play an instrument by chance? Having an instrument usually helps with finding the notes you're looking for; otherwise you just have to break down the melody into smaller sections and find the harmony a couple notes at a time.

Haha, sorry if there was any confusion, but I'm glad you found it interesting and were able to learn from it! I don't know what you're dealing with, but I hope you find the answer you're looking for. You know, "harmony" is kind of an interesting word because in music it's usually something that is "orchestrated" or "planned", but life is so random and unexpected that you can't really "orchestrate" or "plan" anything. I think life requires you to "improvise" and "adapt". It may be none of my business, but I think a better word for you would be "peace" or "contentment", because while you can't control the things around you, you can choose how you feel and react to those things.

I don’t play an instrument and I get it in theory, but to sing it, I can’t. I either revert to the melody or I’m off-key when I attempt to harmonize. It’s so frustrating.

@QuincyKane

It may take some practice to get used to it. When I was a kid, I liked singing in the higher end of my range, so sometimes when a song was in a key that wasn't satisfying, I would sing a "higher melody". I didn't realize it at the time, but I was actually singing harmony. So, maybe don't think of it as harmony, just think of it as "another melody". If you can find a way to record the harmony, even just a few notes, you can listen to it over and over again to get it in your head. The better you can hear it, the easier it is to sing. I hope that gives you some ideas!

So singing an octave higher or lower is harmony?

@QuincyKane

5 жыл бұрын

@@kebakeba2891 If it's an octave higher or lower than the melody, I wouldn't really consider it a harmony, although it does sound good to layer up the melody on different octaves. When I said I would sing a "higher melody", I didn't mean the same melody but an octave higher. I meant I would sing a "different melody" that used notes higher than the main melody and sounded good with the music (which turned out to be harmony).

He said 2 scales notes up or down not an octave which is a whole scale higher or lower.

for those who is frustrated on learning vocal harmonization: 1. find a song cover in YT with harmony melody guide in it, memorize it first so your ears get used to the "feeling" of harmonization, do it over n over again. 2. play the original song in your phone then try to harmonize it with the harmony melody that you've remember 3. Do it over n over with different songs untill you have the feel and instinct to harmonize it by ears Good luck👍👍

Could you provide a video on how to harmonize with people ?

@QuincyKane

5 жыл бұрын

Let me see if I can help you with a comment first, but if you feel like you still need the visual aid of a video, perhaps you could expound on what you'd like to see that would help you. When harmonizing with other people, it's important that everyone learns their part on their own first before trying it together. Sometimes when you hear the other person singing, it can throw you off and you start singing their part instead of yours. Each person needs to practice their part in isolation until it gets stuck in their head. When you try singing together, you almost wanna focus more on your part and trust that everyone else is singing their part correctly. It may take some practice to be able to focus on your part while other people are singing, but you'll get it. As for finding parts, you just use the same method I demonstrated in this video. If you have a female vocalist singing the melody, you could have another female vocalist singing the low harmony and possibly a female vocalist singing the high harmony, but if that's too high, you could have a male vocalist singing the high harmony an octave lower. You could also have another male vocalist singing the melody an octave lower than the female vocalist. If a male vocalist is singing the melody, you could have another male vocalist sing the low harmony and a female vocalist sing the high harmony. You could also potentially have a male vocalist singing the high harmony an octave lower, and a female vocalist singing the low harmony an octave higher (I hope that's not confusing, haha). Anyway, I hope that helps!

Don't worry, not all songs are the same; some melodies make the harmony easier to find, and other melodies can leave you searching. I think familiarity with the melody is the first step, then break it down; try to sing the first 3 notes of the melody, then try to find the 3 notes that harmonize by using the method I demonstrated in the video. The more you do it, the better you get at it; I hope that helps!

@QuincyKane

5 жыл бұрын

Yeah, lower harmonies tend to be harder to hear than higher harmonies, so they take some practice to get down. The highest note always tends to stick out, so that's why higher harmonies are a little easier to find. If you can figure out the low harmony for a song, take some time to practice it in isolation until you become as familiar with it as the melody!

This is the best explanation I have heard yet. Well done.

Pure gold! There's a wealth of knowledge here, and explained in simple terms. I can't thank you enough Quincy. Key takeaways: - you can harmonize on the 3rd up, or 3rd down (on scale) - you can sing the 3rd up one octave lower, which makes it the 6th down (or sing the 3rd down one octave up, ie., 6th up) - I found this killer - sometimes if you find yourself singing slightly off (eg., the diminished example he gave) - then move the note one up or down to resolve it - you can also create some unique harmonies by singing the 7th, or the 9th note on the scale (this looks a bit advanced for me, will try this once I have a decent hold of the above first!)
