About this title

From the Author

This book is the first of a series of ear training and sight singing books. The method presented here differs greatly from the ear training commonly taught at the college level. Having experienced the common university method of ear training and sight singing I can tell you that it is possible to get an A in a course and to get a diploma, and then find oneself unable to get up on the bandstand and correctly hear what other people are playing. If this is your situation I greatly advise you to check out the method presented in this book.

From the Back Cover

There are many methods of ear training available to the serious music student. The relative pitch ear training presented here is based on a two part approach involving singing and listening to an ear training tape. What makes this ear training different is that a student memorizes the sound of all 12 pitches against a key center. Steps and Exercises are given to reach this first plateau. Many of the exercises found in this book can be found in audio form on the internet at muse-eek's website, along with other related files and products which with application will improve ear training abilities.
