    Y'know...this is going to sound weird, but I think Chinese speakers might actually be better at pitch. Mandarin is a tonal language, and as a result their brains are used to hearing shifts in tone better than people who speak atonal languages.
    I have no idea if that makes sense at all, but it's something I'd like to see on a Mythbusters style show.

    So glad I got out of tone deafness and fell into a decent relative pitch. I had to sing chromatic scale along to piano. I also held a chromatic tuner to check if I was singing the right note along - I found out that I was not and this was why I could not get better at music. I adjusted my voice manually to match the note on the piano by modulating my vocal chords and looking at the tuner. It took me over a year to be able to sing along right notes and HEAR if I am off. But you can get out of that tone deaf hell. Follow my lead.
    *edit I am not a singer, I have been playing strings for years, but that was all useless until I did the singing practice*

      @@polanski2399 I think you're confusing relative pitch with perfect pitch. Relative pitch is something every trained musician has, in fact even non-musicians have it.
      If absolute pitch is knowing exactly what shades of paint are mixed in to create a shade of color, relative pitch is like knowing that a shade of color doesn't look the _same_ as another shade of color, even if we can't really explain it beyond 'it just looks different!'
      being tone deaf is like being colorblind. Of course colorblindness can't be 'cured', but you can definitely train yourself out of being tone deaf. It's the way most children sing really badly at first, but quickly improve with exposure to singers in-tune.

    This reminds me of a classmate who was tone deaf. I'm not sure if he's still tone deaf now, but last time I heard him sing, he has improved a lot lol
    He's just super confident, so even though everyone told him that his singing was way off, he'd still sing. I remember that he sat next to me in high school, and he'd sing Breakeven every day, but he also nicely asked for feedback on how to sing in tune lol every day was literally like 1:37 - 2:07 hahaha he would unintentionally harmonise too sometimes and while it sounded nice, he actually didn't realise that it was "in tune" in a way, nor that he could repeat that again cause it was unintentional lol
    But! after one year of constantly singing Breakeven daily, he was finally able to sing in tune! Like he would sing several times on different days and they were always in tune!
    Bottom line, twoset's right, always practice, and don't stop even when other people say you don't sound good! Hahahah

    • @artemisjr1237
      @artemisjr1237 3 года назад +6

      I needed this because when I am not confident I go out of key prolly because anxiety hits in and I tend to sing more from my throat then my stomach and a lot softer but when I am confident I do a lot better and stay on pitch with normal singing levels. Yes practice really does help. :)

      @anjalib6310 6 лет назад +141

      playing an instrument just requires knowing where the notes are, but someone who is tone deaf will have to rely on sheet music and hand positions because they won’t be able to play by ear. BUT technically they can play and if they practice and become really good at muscle memory to know where notes are they can succeed. BUT if you’re tone deaf you’ll never be able to sing correctly because you’re the one deciding whether the note is right or wrong and you can’t utilize muscle memory for singing.

Anyway, I will probably never be able to perceive tones as naturally and intuitively as a musician but this will not stop me from practicing over and over and over and ... :) Thanks for making a really great channel, you guys make a great contribution to the culture of learning by showing how fun and fruitful it is to cultivate a complex skill over many years of practice.

She did tell me that "the violin is very hard" and it took her a week to figure out do re mi on it, but she did play it for some time. She quit though, because ballet and sports in general is more her thing than music is. My point: it's not impossible.

    My teacher only put the 1st and 3rd finger tapes on my cello and my 4th finger is always off, either too high or too low. So he told me to compare it with the other string. I can't hear it 😭

    I'd actually much rather call it "relative pitch" instead of "tone deaf"

    • @alanacastillo90
      @alanacastillo90 6 лет назад +48

      But isn't relative pitch the thing when someone imitates a tune(pitch, intonation, etc) quite perfectly? Like, people w relative pitch don't know what notes they're singing but they do it similarly

    • @stuffedanimalgangNATION
      @stuffedanimalgangNATION 6 лет назад +11

      Lol good question. I was taught that it's when it takes more than one shot at a note to get it because each pitch ends up relying on another to find it. I guess it's different when playing with others. It's basically like trying to figure out intervals.

    • @stuffedanimalgangNATION
      @stuffedanimalgangNATION 6 лет назад +8

      It's just like perfect pitch but with adding an extra try for educational purposes. Or like partially walking up or down the whole and half steps to get it perfectly. So it's relative pitch and not Super Saiyan pitch (when you learn Super Saiyan pitch you will need to add an amp even if it's so top secret that it's invisible) Like trying to play along with Ling Ling and trying to be like her. Ling Ling is so perfect including at perfect pitch that Sony made a Japanese robot clone of her and named her Hilary Hahn. Every violinist should try to work on their relative pitch, their perfect pitch, their Ling Ling pitch, Hilary Hahnbot pitch and to diversify their resume, even Super Saiyan pitch and viola pitch.

    • @stuffedanimalgangNATION
      @stuffedanimalgangNATION 6 лет назад +4

      I just pretend to be a bit selectively tone deaf and/or selectively deaf and/or selectively illiterate when tone deaf people happen to be polite. Tone deaf people actually are able to learn relative pitch once they learn how to play and hum scales and whole steps and half steps because those are the building blocks of getting your pitch to be all that it can be.

    • @Andrei.Christop
      @Andrei.Christop 5 лет назад +12

      actually the relative pitch is finding intervals after hearing a note while perfect pitch is to know wich note is being played added to the relative pitch content

      Melissa Yusaitis Imagine if there are no violists. There will not be an orchestra. So technically, there needs to be people playing the viola. I play the viola too and I don’t regret it at all.

    • @melissayusaitis9722
      @melissayusaitis9722 6 лет назад

      Yes I know how important the viola is in the orchestra, I am in a college orchestra myself. If you enjoy your instrument (any instrument) then keep playing it and enjoy it. I play the violin and I love it, I don't actually think viola players are tone deaf. It was just a bad music joke. One of my friends in the orchestra who is the first chair violists is actually very talented and can play difficult Bach Viola solo pieces.

    • @nursyahirahasyiqin5953
      @nursyahirahasyiqin5953 6 лет назад +1

      Melissa Yusaitis I am not bragging but I am the first chair violist for my school orchestra. I am only in Primary 6(12 y/o) so I can’t play as well as the violists in your orchestra. I also play violin. Currently in Grade 5. Thx for yor support. I hope you will succeed in your violin even more than you already did. Also, sorry if what I said was rude or kinda rough to you.
