How To Sing And Play Piano At The Same Time

Video How to sing and play the piano at the same timeArtists like Billy Joel and Elton John can make it look easy, but singing and playing the piano at the same time takes time and practice to really master! In a word, it’s hard because you’re multitasking by “playing” two instruments simultaneously – your voice and the piano. It’s easy to lose focus on one while the other is a bit off; If you focus on your voice, you can get the timing wrong with your fingers, and if you pay too much attention to the piano keys, you may find yourself mumbling along to the song. It takes a lot of practice to master this skill, so we’ve put together some singing tips to help you gain independence with your hands and sing brilliantly. At the same time, you will need to focus on:

Sing at the right pitch
Maintain both main rhythm and vocal tempo
Assign the correct word or syllable to a specific piano note
Keep the rhythm and timing of the song

This all sounds like an impossible task, but with the right approach, you’ll get there with time.

Good posture means better breathing and better sound production. It doesn’t matter whether you prefer to sit or stand – as long as you maintain flexibility in your spine. You may be tempted to lean forward while playing the piano, but straightening your back not only looks better, it also helps your voice and breathing technique.2) Your Mic position is just right The way you position the microphone will affect your posture and breathing technique, so make sure you don’t have to lean forward too far. Your microphone should also be set to the proper height to encourage you to keep your spine straight.3) Sing and play separately at first During the preparation, try to focus your attention on one specific skill at a time. Start by singing a cappella and then start singing along to a pre-recorded piano piece. Then you can try playing a few simple chords while focusing on your singing technique. Then shift the focus to the piano, while singing softly. Continue until you feel confident with the keys, and then slowly begin to combine the two.4) Draw power from your lower body Make sure you don’t squeeze your shoulders and neck to draw the singing power from them. Instead, focus your control and energy on the pelvic floor – this way, even when you’re sitting or standing, you’ll be able to sing with proper breathing and throat technique. If you prefer to be seated, a quick singing trick is to sit down on the edge of a chair and press down. If you’re more comfortable standing, your feet should be shoulder-width apart as you draw force from your feet.

Keep your touch light and wrist flexible. This will allow your entire body to breathe more freely.6) Practice regularly You need to be consistent in your practice to master this skill. You should practice for at least half an hour a day, and if possible, log your training sessions to track your improvement over time. You should notice a difference in your abilities within a month or so.Photo by GBiB Read more: How to remove a file cabinet drawer
