2. VOCALISE and SCALE 

Mr. Moore will have you sing a few warm ups with him. These are NOT complicated, and are not meant to be tricky. They are simply to help hear tone and pitch accuracy. You should also be able to sing a major scale. If you're not quite sure what to do for the scale, check this video out -->  MAJOR SCALE 

3. SIGHT SINGING 

 Please do not panic!  Below are some examples of sightreading in F Major (the first note is F, and is called DO in solfege) Here are some video links to help with sightreading. If you have NO sight-singing experience, or limited, come talk to Mr. Moore.
