Singers

To be a successful singer, you should gain as much experience as possible performing in a variety of styles—such as opera, jazz, or popular music.

In other areas of music, learning to sing and becoming a singer is often a matter of desire, practice, and having an inborn love and talent for singing. Learning to play a musical instrument is often extremely helpful in learning to sing and to read and write music. Sometimes it is not even necessary to have a "good" singing voice. Many singers in rock and rap music have less-than-perfect voices. But these singers learn to use their voices in ways that nonetheless provide good expression to their songs, music, and ideas.
