Lesson transcript

Mum Mum Exercise

All right, so now we're going to be doing the Mum Mum exercise. This exercise is going to take you much closer to singing because:

  • We're now opening the mouth
  • We're getting real vowel-consonant combinations

This is a very good exercise for balancing out your voice.

Key Points:

  • Vowel Clarity: We just want to make sure that we keep that vowel clear.
  • Troubleshooting: If you notice yourself running into any sort of problems, please refer back to the video component of this to troubleshoot any of those spots.

Um, but for now, I'm going to give you the demonstration and then we will jump into your turn.
