Hey, I'm Sylvia, and I am passionate about sharing the joy of singing, and the magic of harmony, in community! I started this channel to share my original songs as well as cover songs with harmonies, that you can sing along to! I also create harmony tutorials to help people learn to sing in harmony by ear, and as a learning resource for my "Sing Again" community choir.
I believe that singing is our birthright, and it doesn't matter how "good" you are - we are all worthy of sharing our voice. That's why I embrace imperfection, and celebrate it! Because when we make mistakes, laugh, and carry on, we give others permission to do the same. After all, it's about the joy of singing, not whether we sound radio-worthy. Keep singing imperfectly!

Community Singalong with @cocolovealcorn‘s Song “Rebirth” - Soloists Ann and Kirsten
Singing @cocolovealcorn’s song “Rebirth” at our choir season-end “Big Sing” in Nanaimo. About 75 people showed up in the rain to sing in community, thanks to my guests Leah Hokanson and Shirley Whitelaw who also invited their singing friends. Sing Again community choir is an all-voices-welcome choir where we sing in harmony by ear, from pop to world music, call-and-response, and layer songs from the community singing movement.

Expression by Sylvia Humble, at Nanaimo Ukulele Festival, May 24, 2024
Переглядів 9121 день тому
Expression is a song I wrote this year, because I think the world needs more singing out loud imperfectly; for me, singing is a human birthright (I denied myself the joy for way too long); it is about joy and connection, not perfection. This is my first call-and-response song, meant to be interactive. I use a loop pedal (I call it “the Sylvettes”) to create harmonies, and this is my first time ...
This Flight Tonight by Joni Mitchell - sung by Sylvia Humble, Nanaimo Ukefest, May 24 2024

Hi, I’m Sylvia and I’m passionate about sharing the joy of singing in community. This is one of my favourite Joni Mitchell songs to sing, so I chose it as part of my 30-minute opening set at the Nanaimo Ukulele Festival concert. I was thrilled to be part of it! I made a few mistakes but kept going - I think when we share our imperfect expression, it gives others permission to do the same. To le...

One of the songs I sang with my friend Michael Clarke, amazing singer and multi-instrumentalist, at my birthday party at Pacific Moon Rising restaurant. Dedicated to my daughter Amalia. It was so lovely to have 30 of my choir members and friends come out to celebrate! Notice Michael has recorded bass, guitar, and drums on his looper, which starts part-way through the song when he starts his sol...

Learning to sing in harmony with “Here Comes The Sun”! Sing Again community choir
Переглядів 1692 місяці тому
A short clip from our very first session of “Sing Again community choir” in Spring 2023, where we started learning three-part harmony to The Beatles’ song, “Here Comes The Sun”. I am loving the sound of all our voices together! These moments of harmony fill the soul with joy and gratitude.
Dave’s Testimonial for Sing Again - March 2024
Переглядів 442 місяці тому
Dave Haggblad joined Sing Again in 2022, during the pandemic when we sang outside at Rathtrevor Beach. He wasn’t sure he could sing. Two years later, he’s confidently singing harmony in three bluegrass bands here in Parksville / Oceanside. He’s got a beautiful baritone voice, and plays a mean upright bass! I am so grateful to have played a part in Dave’s vocal liberation. Thanks Dave for sharin...
Ordinary Magic by Lea Morris - acapella in Victoria, BC, Canada @thisisLEA

The sound system failed, so Lea made the best of it, and went acoustic. This acapella recording of Lea’s song “Ordinary Magic” is missing the first verse - check out Lea’s original video @thisisLEA. It was a dream come true for me, collaborating with Lea on our Vancouver Island tour. Thank you Lea for making the trip to Canada and sharing your heart-lifting songs! Thanks Dick Jackson (@thegetti...

Hey, I’m Sylvia, and my passion is empowering people to sing in harmony, in community, imperfectly. I make these recordings as learning resources for my “Sing Again” community choir, and for you to learn with your friends or with your choir. I’d love to hear your feedback - did it work for you? This song is such a gem - it makes me want to dance! I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed recordi...

Excellent but how do I hear the voices separately please?
I was expecting to teach one by one than all together but u just singing we dont get the point that we searching for
@VICKDOLOPANGIA there are two more separate videos for the tenor and “alto 2” harmonies - they are linked in a playlist at the end of this video.
Thank you. Came across this yesterday for the first time. Will try it with my uke group.
Beautiful 😊
Fantastic cover, I wish that I had you’re confidence to perform on stage ❤️
This is amazing Sylvia, well done, shine shine shine ☀️☀️☀️
🎉WoooooHoooooo! Such an inspiring human and fabulous song! ❤
I'd like to hear the tenor vocal separately :(
ua-cam.com/video/xKGbG6z9i3w/v-deo.htmlsi=A1cq3fsexpY9ldVZ
Very nice. Nailed it.
Thanks so much Uncle Jon! This means a lot coming from you.❤️
Thank you for the hormony
❤❤
❤❤
🙏❤️🎶🌞
Natural and beautiful voice with clarity
Thank you so much!🙏
That was great! ❤
Lovely. So much fun learning to sing harmony with you
That was very nice and simple. Thanks.
i love your videos! they are so helpful :)
Beautiful Sylvia ❤️
Again from argentinian Armonix Vocal Group: compliments for your work!!!
Thanks so much for the compliments!
Great job Sylvia!! We are from Argentina and we are just trying to free our voices, thank you so much!! for your support
Be free, enjoy, that’s what it’s all about!
Very nice, which app did you do this with? Thanks in advance
Thank you. I use Capcut.
Beautiful Sylvia! Thanks for posting.
Thank you, Nancy! So glad you could join us in Victoria!
Hi Sylvia, thank you for sharing this. I’ve joined a new singing group and we are using your video as practice to learn the parts! It’s been so helpful! Do you know what the starting note is for each part? We are trying to sing this a capella but get a little stuck right at the beginning. Thank you!
@leanakate6416 So glad this is helpful. The melody starts on a D, the Alto starts on an F#, and the soprano and tenor start on an A.
Would've helped to hear the alto 2 and tenor by themselves for comparison
There is a link to the videos with those separate harmony parts at the end of the video.
This is really cool!
LOVELY :)))))))
Thank you, songbird ❤️
Just found out my job may be going, how apt that I've found this song today
Wishing you wonderful new beginnings!
She is the original
Good vibes.
Agreed! It was an incredible experience🙏
What software do you use to make these videos. It works so well to show 3 parts. So fun to watch.
You did this song justice. Well done.
This is excellent!!! Thank you. My friend and I are planning to work up this song, so you have helped us a lot to find the harmonies. Love the way you laid out the video.
So happy you found it useful!
You should listen to the Iain Matthews version from 1973. Iain and Mike Nesmith wrote the arrangement that is mainly used. Iain’s 1973 album Valley Hi was one of Don Henley’s favorite records at the time, which is how the Eagles found the arrangement. On Iain’s version he sings all five vocal parts.
Amazing...
Thank you🌞
Very nice cover, singing and playing, of this classic Doobie Brothers song! Nice harmonizing! I subscribed and liked! I hope you will like my trumpet cover of "Listen To The Music" enough to subscribe to my cover channel of past hit songs as well: ua-cam.com/video/F8jX8qrnyYU/v-deo.html
How are we learning to sing harmonies?
I have created separate harmony tracks that are linked at the end of the video. I hope this works for you.
Besutiful! 🎉
Would have been better to isolate each voice so you could actually hear the different harmonies. This doesn't teach you how to actually sing the harmonies....it just sings the harmonies.🤷♀️🤔
Yes, absolutely! That’s why I added links to videos with isolated tracks at the end.
I want to learn thsi second voice.
The separate voices are in this playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLTrwMXhvZ9BSXY-BlJ8xavzb3wxLVRkSA.html&si=1gR_o5DrxJQo3fnd
beautiful voice!
That was FUN!!! 💖🐳🎵🎶☺
How appropriate: an angel singing about heaven!😇
You are an Angel❤️
Quite difficult, but worked well.😊
Yes, it’s a challenging one with all the key changes. So glad it worked for you!
Thank you - that was great!
I’m happy you enjoyed it! Thank you
Such hope ❣️
Rise up, dear Ruth! ❤️🙏💕⭐️
Feeling in every note. Thanks for choosing these words to embellish ❣️
We WILL be singing this in Braunschweig. Thank you very much!
Awesome, Im so happy you will use this, Lea!
Amazing I'm so blessed with this song
I wanna listen tenor only
In this video, The tenor part is highlighted, which means it is louder in the mix. I have left the other voices in the mix at a lower level, for context, which is how most people learn best. Everyone is different though, so I’m sorry if this doesn’t work for you.
