About this title

From the Author

There is a direct correlation between a student's ability to identify pitches and their musicality. This ear training series presents a method with which I have had great success in improving my students' abilities to identify pitches, and provides a way to take one more step on the journey toward master musicianship. The course of study presented in this book assumes that the reader has intermediate to advanced knowledge of music.
