Jazz scale

The jazz scale, also known as the chromatic scale, is an essential scale to master if you love pop music (or really, any contemporary music).

With this exercise, you:

✔ Train your flexibility and vocal agility
✔ Improve your musicality
✔ Warm up your voice and the muscles in and around your mouth and tongue
✔ Practice transitioning from your natural voice to your falsetto

This exercise takes me back to my time at the conservatory—yes, a long time ago—when I studied jazz vocals and sang this scale back and forth endlessly. Yet another warm-up exercise that trains multiple skills at once, making it one of my favorites!
