Vocalise: Two Octave Tonic Arpeggio Up, Dominant Seventh Arpeggio Down

This is a very common vocalise, and it is very valuable. Low voiced singers should give it a shot, though they might want to transpose it down a little bit. The Scorch plug-in can help you with that.

Be sure to keep each note part of legato phrase. Don’t allow choppy-ness to enter unless you are specifically working on staccato.
