How it works: Hold the tuning app close to your mouth while singing along with the “Find Your Vocal Range” video. The app will show you the exact pitch name and number that you are singing. As you sing along with the track, make sure that both the pitch name AND the number matches the ones you see on the screen. This way you will find your exact vocal range :)

Today's video includes both technical goals but also goals to help you get a bit out of your comfort zone and take the next step as a performing singer. It also includes an encouragement to look back at 2018 to see what you can be proud of having achieved with your voice already.
