Full major scale

Full major scale is a vocal warm-up of 15 notes per phrase, sung on “ah” and recommended from the Intermediate level. Starting from C3, the phrase sings C3, D3, E3, F3, G3, A3, B3, C4, B3, A3, G3, F3, E3, D3, C3 and goes up a semitone on every repeat.

The whole octave, up and down: stamina and pitch across the entire scale.

Tip: The two half steps (mi–fa and ti–do) are where people go out of tune the most.

Sing on “ah”

    What it is for

    Covers the whole octave, through both half steps of the scale. It builds stamina and shows whether your pitch holds up on the highest notes of the phrase.

    The notes of the phrase

    Starting on C3, the phrase sings these notes, and each repetition moves everything up a semitone:

    1. C3
    2. D3
    3. E3
    4. F3
    5. G3
    6. A3
    7. B3
    8. C4
    9. B3
    10. A3
    11. G3
    12. F3
    13. E3
    14. D3
    15. C3

    How to do this vocal exercise

    1. Choose the level: it sets the tolerance (how far off you can be and still count as in tune) and the tempo.
    2. Without headphones, listen to the whole phrase and sing after the count-in. With headphones, sing along with the soft reference.
    3. Each repetition moves the phrase up a semitone, to the top of your range, and then back down. On the voice line, green means in tune and orange means off the note.
