Scat Singing Method

Scat Singing Method
Vocal improvisation can be easily and effectively learned by singers or taught in a classroom situation. For choral ensembles, it is educationally valid as a supplement to the total choral musical curriculum by increasing creativity in individual students, and by enhancing the overall musicianship of entire ensembles. For individual singers, it can increase vocal skill, musicianship, and performance confidence. 

Theme And Variation
This new approach is based on the technique of theme and variation. By using the elements of vocal improvisation: syllables, melody, and rhythm, and applying the techniques, musical objectives can be met and instant success achieved. In other words, you can learn to improvise right NOW!
