| got the blues Blue-zy blue day bip bah dup wee Ed Wilson’s notes on SCAT singing
| think that singing SCAT is like singing a jazz solo instead of playing it on an instrument. Thatis why | suggest
that you should listen to-as many jazz instrumentalists as you can as well as good scat singers like Ella Fitzgerald,
Generally speaking you would not use scat lyrics in a ballad, except possibly for “lls” every now and then. Scat
lyrics are mainly used with fast flowing lines like Be-Bop music (Charlie Parker, Ella Fitzgerald).
You can create your own style wth Scat singing, You can choose your own syllables. Though | do find that ‘D”,
“B" and "T” are used more often than other letters, Example: Doo, Bee, Dah, Bah, Dee, Tah etc. Thisis probably
because ofthe “attacking” qualty of the sounds these letters make.
For softer attacks you could use ‘L',"E", 0". Example: Lah, Lee, Lu, Ee, Ooh, Ahh eto.
NOTE: When you see ‘min the lyrics, the apostrophe is actualy a silent “d”. The ’n should be sung with a nasal
sound with the tongue hard against the palate (roof of the mouth). For instance: doo-den-doo-den-dee will be
writen as doo-n-doo-n-dee (drop the den and sing’).
When scatting fast double time phrases ! suggest you use the “doodle loodle” syllables:
Doo-dul-lu-dul (the second and third “D" should be sung silently as the tongue goes back and forth against the
pallet).
Scat lyrics don't have to make sense. | often scat sing after | play a trombone solo. For a bit of fun I scat ‘sing into
my Harmon mute. Itis a crazy, fun sound, So forget the rules, have a go, try something different.
\When singing the tunes and solos you should try to extend your range into the next octave (high and low) trying to
achieve a smooth transiton from chest voice to head voice and back again.
Scat, have fun, the audience willlove it. The more you practice scat, the better you will become and the more
confidence you wil gain.
Below are some ofthe scat sylables | use. These should help you get started - then you can create your own.
