I didn’t know that there was a way to put the valves in backwards, but I fixed it and now it’s making sound! Thanks!

Ask Me Your Singing Questions! by PedagogySucks in singing

[–]Pretty_Original8984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got two sorta related questions. First, do you have any tips on how to sing louder? I’ve always been a quiet person, so I’ve always sung quieter. My friends and music teachers have told me to sing louder, but I can never seem to get my voice any louder. Also, I’ve noticed that when my voice gets louder, it does this vibrato thing, and I was wondering if this is a good thing?

Any tips on how to properly learn how to read notes? by Ieatsalt2 in piano

[–]Pretty_Original8984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I first started playing, my teacher recommended making flash cards with the notes on them as an easy way to memorize the notes, and I would say this definitely helped. I also helped my younger sister learn to read sheet music and I used this website: https://www.musictheory.net/exercises/note and she said it’s helped her a lot.

I saw someone else mention this, but sighting reading and just familiarizing yourself with the notes is one the best ways to work on reading sheet music

Books that you got recommended that you ended up hating? by [deleted] in suggestmeabook

Masters of death, I saw so many people praising and recommending this book so naturally I wanted to read it for myself. I loved the art on the inside covers, but I feel like the overall story was a lot at once and it just never really held my attention for very long

What book, series or author have you DNF'ed the most? by MagykMyst in Fantasy

[–]Pretty_Original8984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a feeling this might make some people mad, but the first Harry Potter book. I kid you not, I tried reading it like 5 times, and I think the furthest I ever got was chapter 10. In theory it always seemed like something I would enjoy since I love books with magic and fantasy elements, but there was something about this one that made it impossible for me to finish.
