FAQ
Path questions
Why am I in tune a cappella but off with accompaniment?
Accompaniment adds rhythm, volume, and harmony distractions. Lower it and isolate entries and endings.
Do I have to sing the original key?
No. A suitable key matters more than the original, especially when chorus high notes keep failing.
