We do this in choir every day and after we repeat it once we break off into parts, starting at different times. Its really fun.

I use this exercise in my vocal lessons, and it works extremely well!

If your Do is given two beats and you skip over Ti,

and you run it as a round of as many people as you can get to do it, rules 1) One on a part, 2) Each singer starts on the next Do. So:

Do — Do Re Do — Do Re Mi Re Do etc.

….. Do – Do Re Do — Do Re Mi etc.

-for as many participants as possible, but remember: SKIP the Ti ! Then you get a shimmering major triad with each voice on one note of the triad and otherwise in passing tones. Good luck,

Chuck

Great morning exercise! Nice to warm up the vocal chords and also for teaching your tongue to move quickly through consonants and vowels.

I’ve tried this with many students in my vocal classes and its a very fun exercise that students really love doing. It’s a great way to help students stay in tune as they go up and down the major scale. Once the exercise begins to become easier amongst your group, you can also get them to clap on (3 & 7 – mi & ti) It gives them another challenge to look forward to!

You can upload a voice clip…it would help us specially for the guys who aren’t sure about the speed…im not a pro at these kind of things so i myself also am not too sure about the speed…it really would be very very helpful if you could upload a voice clip with this…hope you would accept my offer good luck with the work
