Are you a beginner or advanced singer?

Darling Lili, a.k.a. Julie Andrews, is known for her broad vocal range and effortless transitions between registers. If you want to learn how to sing like her, you need to master breathing technique, control your notes, and develop an ear for pitch. In this article, we will show you how to develop these skills by using relevant Singing Carrots resources.

Breathing is key to singing, and Darling Lili's breath control is impressive. Begin by watching the video on active and passive breathing and learn how to control your diaphragm. Then, try singing exercises using the Farinelli Breathing video.

Andrews' vocal technique requires excellent pitch accuracy. After taking the Pitch accuracy test, use the Pitch Training - Educational Singing Game to strengthen your pitch perfect ability. Then, work on your onsets-offsets and use Sustain Vocal to achieve smooth and accurate transitions between notes and your vocal register.

Andrews is famed for her warm and bright sound in hits like “The Sound of Music”. Be sure to do open mouth & throat exercises to achieve a relaxed open sound. Also, learn how to sustain notes vibrantly watching the introductory video on Singing with Vibrato followed by practical exercises demonstrated in Diaphragm Bounce video.
