In this video from Berklee Online course Ear Training Fundamentals, course author Roberta Radley explains how in the field of ear training, singing is not proving that we can sing—it's proving that we can hear. This is what is called inner hearing. When we play a note on our instruments, our inner hearing plays the note in our heads, so then we will be able to sing it. Everyone has an octave in which they feel most comfortable singing, and identifying your range is the first step in helping you make the most of your ear training/inner hearing practice. Radley says that many times we hear sounds that are either too low or two high to replicate, so we can transpose the notes in our heads and sing them in a comfortable range. Additionally, she explains how we should be mindful of the three different voice registers: chest voice, mixed voice, and head voice. The mixed and chest voice capture lower notes and are the voices we tend to feel more comfortable in, while the head voice targets higher pitches. To get better at singing, Radley emphasizes the importance of having a practice routine, singing a little every day, resting your voice, relaxing your body, and investing in voice lessons.
