The finest blogger with a degree in Music Education from the University of Education Winneba on Friday, 4th March, 2022 took to his official Facebook page to educate musicians on how to become a good singer.

The five paragraph piece titled “What makes a good singer?” is detailed below;

1. Controlling Pitch

One of the most important aspects of singing is getting your pitches under control. Singing off pitches, getting carried away and loosing control on some notes are all considered loss of vocal control. Once you get control over your voice, you begin to win the battle of developing your best voice.

2. Stay Original

Each singer must learn to stay original with the voices they have. Know your vocal range and stay within, as well listen to yourself. Use your ears along with your voice when singing, this will give you a clearer picture of your strengths and shortcomings.

3. Dynamics and Style

Singing every note and pitch very loud without thinking about dynamics is a sign of unprofessionalism. A good singer doesn’t smash into a song just like that, but finds a reasonable volume and style that works for both the song and the vocal cords.

4. Self Awareness

When you are consistently aware of your singing voice, you will be well attuned to knowing if you are able to hit the right notes, produce the right pitches and have a better idea as to how you sound.

5. Proper Breathing

Belly breathing is the best way for singers to inhale and exhale whilst performing. Oxygen is inhaled through the nostrils down to the diaphragm.
