In reply to Lisa N:
In my experience, problems with matching pitches are almost always a problem of coordination between what the ear hears (usually correct) and what the vocal instrument can produce (usually undeveloped). If the student cannot audiate (hear/think sounds silently in his head) correctly, there is no hope of pitch matching. Once he can auditate, he still must teach the vocal mechanism to be responsive tto his mental commands. All of this has nothing to do with rreading music.
