Sustained Notes and Vibrato

Long Sustained Notes

Practice the notes of a scale with each note being held for 8 counts.   Musically that would be two bars with a whole note in each bar and with a tie touching both whole notes.  Volume and Pitch much be constant throughout the 8 counts.

Try to increase to 12 counts.

Vibrato

Elvis used vibrato in every song.  He couldn’t do those slow songs with excellent vibrato without vocalizing practice.
