An interactive companion for discovering your voice through listening.
Begin by listening.
Hear the shape before you make it.
Then try it—and listen again.
What do you hear in your own voice?What do you notice in your body?What changes?What becomes available?
There isn't only one way through the Palette. Follow a pathway, stay with one sound, compare, experiment, or let surprise lead you somewhere unexpected.
The Listening Palette holds the structure so you can listen—to the sound, to your voice, and to your body.

Shape your practice
Choose a comfortable boundary, receive a vowel shape, and see how many ways you can sing it.
Your comfortable range
Set the easy, usable boundary you want every invitation to honor today. This will never be randomized.
Not sure of your range?
Begin on an easy speaking or humming note.
Use the piano below and glide downward gently. Stop at the lowest note that stays clear and comfortable.
Return to the easy note, then glide upward. Stop before squeezing, reaching, or losing ease.
Choose those two comfortable notes here. Start smaller today—you can widen the range whenever more becomes available.
Range changes from day to day. Pain, strain, dizziness, or breathlessness means pause and reset with a voice teacher or clinician.

Your keyboard follows the comfortable range you chose above. Hold any key to sustain it; let go to release it. Follow the colored numbers if note names are new to you.
