Perfect pitch is something you're either born with, or something you need to work really hard in acquiring, and it takes lots of practice!. You can look for media on learning it on Amazon, though!.

if you're really serious about vocal music though, it wouldn't' hurt to start lessons!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't know of any websites, but i learned how to sight read by memorizing middle C, as in if you ask me to sing middle C i know it off the top of my head!. This way, i can just sing middle C and then just go up as many whole or half notes as i need to get to the starting noteWww@QuestionHome@Com

It's SIGHT reading, not "site" reading!.

Perfect pitch is something you either have or you don't have!. With perfect pitch you can look at any note and sound it and if you can't do than, then the only thing left to you is practice, practice and practice and you may eventually be able to 'hear' the note and sing it!.

Spend some hours with a keyboard and burn the pitch into your brain!. Some people without perfect pitch do master good enough pitch to get along but some people never learn!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
