    Hi James,

    In order to imitate different pitches and vocal tones, that would be really difficult since everyone has a different voice and range. I do suggest you learn about how to best train your own voice using the lessons you pointed to above. 

    What type of instruction were you looking for?

    hello

    if i cant match my voice to any pitch then how do i know if i am doing the exercises correctly. because i am singing at a different pitch from the person in the video?

    i find it hard do correct my pitch i think its called tonedeaf

    how long do i keep repeating the exercises for? how do i know i have mastered them?

    thanks

    Singing lesson videos assume that you can match pitch - but it's true that a very small percentage of the population is "tone deaf". You can take a free online test here: http://tonedeaftest.com/. 

     

    While the best "judge" of whether or not you are correctly matching pitch is a skilled teacher, you can use apps to provide feedback in real-time (by analyzing your pitch via your phone's microphone). Check out my colleague Amy Noltee's video on using free tuning apps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7p2gMwsPjw
     
    Other recommendations include the app SingTrue https://www.musical-u.com/apps/singtrue/ and Theta music teacher https://trainer.thetamusic.com/en/content/singing-games.
     
    Best of luck! And feel free to book a lesson if you'd like feedback from a teacher.

    Hi, James!

    Yes, it is necessary to match pitch. How'd you do with the "tone deaf" test?
