Previous 13. Print or write the arrangement you just wrote.
14. Action: Practice and perfect your lead vocals and interpretation.
Ingredients: The arrangement you have just written, your feel for the song.
Explanation: I include this step as part of arranging because it is the fulfillment of everything you have just done.
The main point of the song is to tell a story, and the way you perform your arrangement will either make it or break it. This practice that you will do is actually arranging your lead vocal. In all areas, there is much more than just the notes and the words. The difference between a good performance and a great one lies in the honesty and humanity of the performer. I urge you to review the action plan on how to sing a song to get more insight.
The absolute best thing you can do is to have some feedback from a person you respect as an artist. Good luck.
Result: Your lead vocals complete the musical arrangement of your song! The next step is to record it.
