from Amazon.co.uk, Hamleys, Barbie™ Shares Her Secrets To Singing Success.
Are you a massive singing fan? Do you dream of being the next big popstar? Or do you just love singing karaoke with your mates in your bedroom? Whatever your singing style, Barbie’s vocal coach is here to share her secrets for singing success so you’ll be dazzling your friends and family in no time. Barbie™ plays Princess Liana in the new musical movie Barbie™ & The Diamond Castle. This brilliant new DVD has a great soundtrack full of loads of cool pop songs so to make sure her voice was absolutely perfect, Barbie™ worked with her celebrity voice coach Zoë Tyler. Zoë has helped loads of famous pop stars perfect their singing; she was also the star of BBC’s Any Dream Will Do where she helped train and pick a new Joseph for the West End. Here are Zoë’s top six tips for singing success: Warm up – you should always warm up before you sing. If you don’t, your voice may strain. Try some simple humming and remember to warm up your lips too. Blowing raspberries is an effective and fun way to do this. Breathing – make sure you breathe from your diaphragm and not high in your chest or shoulders. The diaphragm is in the middle part of your tummy and should inflate like a balloon when you breathe in. Try practising in front of a mirror until you get it right. Diction – make sure you pronounce your words properly as you want your audience to understand what you’re singing about. Take a phrase such as: ‘It’s so rare to find a friend like you’ and practise saying it over and over paying special attention to the d’ s’ and t’s. Placing the voice – this means taking the voice off the vocal chords and placing it at the front of the mouth. You should be able to feel the words right behind your teeth. Remember to open your mouth really wide. Performance – remember to open your eyes and smile; really perform the song. It will bring it to life for your audience. Harmony – Adding even a simple harmony when singing with a friend can really make the song sound fantastic – and it’s great fun too. And finally, remember it’s important to practise but above all, have fun! Get loads more cool tips and singing secrets on the special Barbie™ Sing Like A Star DVD starring Zoë Tyler. This essential guide for any budding singer will teach you the basics in warming up, breathing, mouth movement & diction, placing the voice, performance and even harmony!! Plus you can show off all you’ve learnt with some fun karaoke featuring some of Barbie’s™ best-loved songs. You can get this brilliant DVD absolutely free with special packs of Barbie® Princess Liana™ Singing Dolls throughout August, but hurry because they’re only available for a limited time.
