How to sing Yue Opera well?

The biggest problem for beginners in general is pronunciation. First, you copy the lyrics with a piece of paper, and then pronounce the words that are different from Mandarin, so that you will notice them when you sing.

Then the melody. At the beginning, you can't sing along with the recording directly. Listen carefully to the tape and sing after listening. From the first sentence, repeat the process of "playing the recording, pausing, singing by yourself, rewinding and playing the recording again", so as to understand some details.

Listen to the recording again from the beginning. Mark some words that are suddenly high or slippery, then turn off the recording and watch the lyrics sing by themselves. Especially some boring parts, you can never learn just by listening to the recording.

During this time, you can't sing except for the voice condition. Basically, there is no aria that will beat you.

Don't feel troublesome and time-consuming. After understanding an aria like this, you will find it very easy to learn other arias of the same genre.

Finally, a little advice. Singing Yue Opera does not mean that you can sing well by mastering pronunciation and melody. Most opera fans listen to "taste" when they go to the opera. Each genre has its own unique charm, which is abstract and difficult to grasp, but you will naturally feel it if you sing more. I suggest not to try too many genres at first, just sing one of them well.
