Key concepts students will learn:

  • The easiest way to learn how to sing harmony is to break down a simple chord into each of the notes.

  • When harmonizing, the most ear-pleasing sound is often a third above the root note, but you can also go up to the fifth or even a seventh.

  • When singing harmony, it's important to blend your voice with the other singers by singing at the same volume, in the same space, and breathing at the same time.
