This article is for anyone wanting to 'Learn How to Sing in Perfect Pitch'.
You have probably already worked out this Perfect Pitch thing is no easy task. You would be correct in saying that if you were not provided with the right tools and training methods.
There are literally hundreds of ways people teach themselves Perfect Pitch. But whos to say they really work! And does anyone really know how accurate they are? Many people make the mistake of learning Relative Pitch instead of Absolute (perfect) Pitch. This isn't a bad thing because Relative Pitch is a very useful tool that every musician should have. It allows the freedom to play with other great musicians and gives you the confidence you require when doing this. However, Absolute Pitch is quite a different thing.
What is Absolute Pitch?
It is quite simply hearing a note and naming it with no reference to any instrument or outside help. You hear it, you can name it. On the other hand, Relative Pitch is relating back to a reference note/chord/key. This simply means that a musician with Relative Pitch can figure out a note rather quickly if he/she already knows something about the note (whether it be a root note, chord or key).
Do This Exercise To Start Perfecting Your Pitch Now!
Start by finding as many objects that "surround you everyday" that produce tones of definite pitch. These are known as Tone Referencing Instruments but we'll just call them instruments for short.
Some good examples of these instruments are:
- the microwave
- your bedside alarm
- the doorbell
- your wristwatch alarm
- your car horn (be aware that most standard car horns use at least two simultaneous pitches)
- the start up tone for your computer
- a school bell
- the house phone ring tone
.....anything that makes an identifiable and consistent tone really (It must be consistent!).
Electronic devices tend to work the best as reference tones due to their consistent tonal accuracy (and lack of acoustic complexity), just be careful if a battery starts to go flat as it can output untrue tones.
The next step is to find out the precise pitches of each of your instruments. You can do this by repeatedly checking the instrument tones against your pitch reference device. Your pitch reference device could be a pitch pipe, a piano, a guitar or any instrument thats in tune. For this exercise I used a pitch pipe.
Make sure you recheck these "reference tones" on a weekly basis against your pitch pipe, instruments can change pitch without warning for a variety of reasons so its important to keep checking back. It could be a small change, an extreme change or no change depending on the instrument or particular environmental factors. Also, its probably a good idea to check your pitch pipe against another instrument such as a tuning fork. The less variables the better!
The next step is to catalogue the pitches of each instrument in your note book. Make sure you notate the Actual Pitches (including the specific octave) of each instrument on musical staff paper.
eg. You do not just want to know that your doorbell starts on a C, then goes up to G, then down to E. You want to know that all three tones are between "middle C" and the G above "middle C."
"It is of further importance that you know how flat or sharp each pitch is to your pitch pipe and piano / keyboard!"
It is important to realise that you'll find that different instruments produce slightly different notes.
eg. Perhaps the "C" of your door bell is slightly higher in pitch than the C of your house phone; and then maybe the pitch of your microwave is in between these two.
"This may be confusing at first, but you will come to appreciate that tonal memory is better to be thought of as a colour spectrum with different shades of darks and lights!"
After a while you should be able to find at least two octaves of pitches in consecutive half steps and label them in your staff notebook. Keep in mind that most pitch pipes don't have more than one full octave of tones, so you'll have to transpose octaves.
You could spend years trying to teach yourself Perfect Pitch (which is ok if you have that much time) but I strongly recommend a professional coaching course. This way you make the most of your natural ability! You will see big differences between professional training and teaching yourself methods.
"Remember singing should be fun and you can learn anything with the right training methods!"
