Updated: Apr 10, 2020

Music Teacher Tip #22 - #StartingPitch:

When rehearsing a song, don’t guess your starting pitch. Take your starting pitch from an instrument. Here are some choices:

🎵 a piano 🎵 a resonator bell or glockenspiel 🎵 a guitar/ukulele string 🎵 a tuning fork

Get. Your. Starting. Pitch. Every. Time.

😁🎶 Happy teaching!
