Harmony & Backing Vocals in Worship

Once again Musicademy has seen a gap in the market and filled it…this time with a two hour instructional DVD for backing vocalists.

More often than not, backing vocalists seem unaware of the vital ingredient they bring, harmonies are stumbled upon rather than intentional, and any effort to bring vocal discipline is frowned upon! The ten short video tutorials by singer Andreana Arganda offer constructive advice. Topics include understanding the third and fifth harmonies, supporting the lead vocal, when not to sing, and using unison effectively.

Ten songs are given the treatment with two easyto- hear harmonies to copy and learn for every song, and then the full song is included for you to practise your new-found harmony.

HIGH: Simply illustrates the foundational principles of harmonies.

LOW: The presentation is a bit static.
