Well I already know the 12 major scales by notes and stuff, but my band teacher is going to test us by telling us to play the concert pitches scale. i.e. _____, play the F Concert major scale(which would be D Scale for the alto sax). By the way, I have only experienced with 1 year of alto sax, and I%26#039;m only 13. So please treat me like a beginner player.
Thanks.
What Concert to major scale- Alto Saxophone - E Flat Instrument?
when your teacher says a concert pitch, move down 3 half notes.
What Concert to major scale- Alto Saxophone - E Flat Instrument?
heres how transposing instruments work,...Eb alto sax means when you play a %26quot;C%26quot; you hear a concert Eb! so every other note is going to be the same interval from concert sounding pitch. concert Bb=written G
concert D=written B and so on,...
the easiest trick to find which scale you need to play, if your director calls out any scale-you play the scale that starts on the 6th note of the scale he calls for.
Reply:Eb instruments are transposing instruments.
What this means is that when you are playing with a piano or a flute (non transposing instruments), if your band director were to say %26quot;Play a C%26quot;, both of you would be playing a different note! The piano would be playing a %26quot;C%26quot;, but you would be playing a note that SOUNDS like %26quot;Eb%26quot;, even if you are fingering a %26quot;C%26quot;.
If he says %26quot;Play a CONCERT C%26quot;, then any transposing instruments must change their notes. So for CONCERT pitch, piano would still play a %26quot;C%26quot;, but you would play an %26quot;A%26quot;. Then, both of the notes would SOUND the same.
If your instructor gives you a CONCERT Bb... count down 3 half steps... Bb to A (1), A to Ab (2), Ab to G (3). You would play a G.
If you know your circle of fifths, you can just think about the relative minor and that%26#039;s the note you start on... if not, don%26#039;t worry about it for tomorrow, but it%26#039;s something you should learn!
Good luck- and have fun!

Why cant i sing anymore?????
I dont know whats wrong with me. i havent been sick or anything...and i used to sing all of bleeding love perfectly and now i cant sing any of the high notes. i only sing at home and i know that i didnt over use it. its bothering me cause i love to sing! help. i tried drinking water but it didnt help me at all. i can sing low notes as i did before but eh high notes are history. help!!!!!
Why cant i sing anymore?????
if you are an adolescent, your voice may have changed. that happens. there is nothing wrong with being an alto.
if you are not a trained singer, you may have damaged your voice.

Why cant i sing anymore?????
cause you could never sing
Reply:Well you may naturally have a low range and your body is trying to tell you that. Since you said that you only sing at your house, your voice is probably not strong enough to continually reach those high notes. Also you may have overdone it. You may not think that you were pushing or straining but you can%26#039;t see what your vocal cords were doing and they may have been banging together quite hard (which is a VERY bad thing)
If you rest your voice you may be able to regain some of your top range.
If you are serious about being a singer you may want to consult an ENT (Ears Nose and Throat) doctor who can look at your vocal cords and may be able to help you.
Hope things work out well!
Reply:hahahahaha, go to singing lessons or something.
maybe you just never sang well %26amp; your ears changed haahahah, suckah
Reply:The female voice is very strange in how it changes. A lot of change can be expected throughout middle school and high school where some notes will be lost in every range but will later return. Unlike guys though, women%26#039;s voices can continue to change throughout their lives, both in going lower and higher... just listen to early Modanna verses her later work to hear how her voice has dropped. But there are other cases where women%26#039;s voices do slowly get higher over the years- and they can often continue to swing back and forth.
The best advice I can give you is to work on how you produce your sound. Use good breath support and vowel placement and you will be able to keep a lot more notes than you realize- but expect that this is a fluid process for most women.

Talent show song help!!?
What%26#039;s a good song to sing for the talent show. I%26#039;m in 6th grade at a catholic school so nothing scandalous lol. But do you guys have any good songs for a girl that aren%26#039;t too high pitched? Thanks!
Talent show song help!!?
if you are a good singer, sing something like rihanna
Talent show song help!!?
id try lil wayne, or 50 cent...lol jk, try any girl bands, or like taylor swift i think her name is...
Reply:natasha bedingfield....thats a good one.
search her songs so you can hear what she sounds like!
Reply:You should sing something like Green Finch and Linnet Bird from Sweeney Todd, that is sung by a young girl and isn%26#039;t provactive. There are 2 different keys for this song. One that is super high and one that is lower.
Another good song would be anything from Les Mis, there is also a young girl in that show, its very depressing but beautiful music.
Also the new broadway show The Little Mermaid has great new songs in it that Ariel sings. I just love the new songs they added to the show.
Reply:There are plenty of Alto-Soprano 2 pieces that are appropriate for a 6th grader. DO NOT perform anything that is Rap, or too modern. I suggest something like Bette Midler, or Sarah McLachlan, their voices seem to fit well with the underdeveloped voice. Good Luck!

What song . . .?
We%26#039;re going to sing a song in chorus next year I really want to listen to it. I heard another women%26#039;s choir sing it at a Heritage Festival. It is something about %26quot;Strength%26quot; in arabic . . . I know it has a Kh at the beginning of its title. It%26#039;s very pretty and I want to listen to it so bad. The song has something about being a bird and caged or something . . . if you can help, I would love it
What song . . .?
type in a few of the words eg. %26quot; twinkle little star %26quot; followed by the word lyrics , on google, and it should bring the name of the song up

Do you think I could learn drums in a year?
If I choose to splay drums I would need to know them in a year for a school band.
Would I be able to do it by next year? I can choose to play either rythem guitar or drums. I think the rythm guitar would be easier but I like drums.
What do you think?
Do you think I could learn drums in a year?
First, see if you can sign up for some drum lessons with a good and experienced teacher. They could also evaluate your knack and or talent
Do you think I could learn drums in a year?
well i play guitar myself and it took a while to learn, with a pro teacher.
but with drums i taught myself i normal rock beat in a day.
imagine what you could do with a pro teacher and a year. you will be great
:):):) and im 13
Reply:I have been playing drums for just under 2 years, but after a year of lessons I was playing to a decent standard.
I think drums is a great instrument to play, and I%26#039;ve really enjoyed playing it. School band standard would be possible in a year, but you would have to work hard at it.
The other thing to think about is whether your parents will let you have a drum kit, because they are quite noisy. Or you could go for the option I took, which was to buy an electric one, which is much more expensive, but quieter and better in the long run.
Good luck, whichever you choose.

And I have loved singing since I was really young.
Thank you.:)And it%26#039;s natural, no professional training!

Reply:dude you frickin SUCK!
Reply:You sing very well! I would give a strong 8.... I think with some professional training you could be a perfect 10. Its just a tad bit nasally and off just a little, I really think its good but could be great with a little help.
Reply:Wow you have an absolutely amazing voice. You%26#039;re a total 10. You%26#039;ve got amazing range. It%26#039;s a sweet sound to hear you were in a very nice key and held it well! keep it up!
Reply:Honestly? You can carry a tune, but I don%26#039;t like how you did this number. Your voice lacks energy, and that song required it. I%26#039;d say a 6.
Reply:ummm. your okay.
i didnt see you singing, but the voice was alright.
it kinda sounds like something off enchanted or some other disney movie.
compared to actual singers like shakira or christina, 4-6.
but in general... id say 7, maybe 8.
but because of your uniqueness, maybe you could try to find a way into doing cartoon voices for disney [in all seriousness] =]
Reply:wow. i dont like the stile of music but you have an amasing voice. bravo 10/10
keep it up
fantastic :)
Reply:yes u can
Reply:Your voice vibrates too much, it shows that your breathing is not stable. Try not to slide your voice when singing high notes, just hit the note. You sounded quite unstable in your high notes where you have to sustain. You also went a little off tune actually. Other than that, your voice is quite nice and you have no problem switching your voice. With loads of training, you will be able to solve all your problems. Good luck !
