Ear Training

Ear training is the study of using your ear to understand music. This is the skill that allows you to play something that your hear on the radio, to pick up something from another musician in an ensemble, or to understand why some songs sound good to you and some don't. We will begin by simply identifying certain scales, eventually moving to interval recognition, and finally harmonic dictation. The end result is that you will be able to analyze, understand, and evaluate almost any music that you hear, an incredibly valuable skill.
