Abstract

This study aims to develop a method of through singing that the principles of jazz improvisation, but focuses on improvisation as a tool for composition rather than to cultivate authentic jazz improvisational techniques. The lessons are divided into four phases: singing chord tones, singing chord tones over chord progressions, creating melodies over chord progressions, and creating melodies with lyrics, which can be broken down into smaller steps depending on the level of the overall lesson and the learner’s theoretical background and achievement. In the class, learners can experience creation through singing and lay the foundation for creative work. The significance of this study lies in the development of a pedagogical approach to help vocal majors expand their musical spectrum through opportunities to combine theory and performance.
