Summary

Hi, fellow music lover! Congratulations on starting your music-making journey.

This lesson is broken into several chapters. The first part focuses on interval identification exercises, starting with grouped intervals and ending with all intervals mixed up. The second part of the book focuses on extremely valuable exercises with the help of fifths. The third part is a simple yet powerful exercise that allows you to manifest the sound of each interval even more.

The fourth part focuses on chord identification exercises, starting with grouped chords and ending with all chords mixed up. The fifth part of the book focuses on extremely valuable exercises with the help of a drone. The last part brings you very close to a real-life situation. Short chord progressions played by either a full band or a solo piano put your ears to the final test.

Best of all, this lesson doesn’t limit itself to dry theory: after a brief introduction to every concept, we completely focus on listening exercises to sharpen your ear.

Oh, and before I forget, the most important tip of all: have fun!

This Concept Is Working for Me

I got the other audiobooks of that series, too. I liked all of them. It's a different approach here. It might help to know what is inside:

Introduction

<<Intervals>>

Intro Intervals
(It's a brief introduction discussing the reader's purposes and tips on interval ear training. Good thoughts in there.)

Minor Second Versus Major Second
Minor Third Versus Major Third
Fourth Versus Augmented Fourth Versus Fifth
Minor Sixth Versus Major Sixth
Minor Seventh Versus Major Seventh
All Intervals Mixed Up
(All intervals are played up, down, and together followed by its solution. This concept is definitely working for me.)

Intro Exercise With Fifths
Exercise With Fifths
Intro Exercise With Random Fifths
Exercise With Random Fifths
Bonus Exercise With Random Fifths
(Clear instructions on what to do are given here. The bonus track adds background noises of a pub scene to make ear training more realistic. I like that idea!)

Intro Exercise Interval Manifestation
Exercise Interval Manifestation
(A drone with all intervals one after the other is played here. Another helpful exercise to train your ears for identifying intervals.)

<<Chords>>

Intro Chords
(Pretty much the same introduction, but concentrating on chords.)

Major Versus Minor
Major Versus Sus
Diminished Versus Augmented
All Triads Mixed Up
Major 7th Versus Dominant 7th Versus Major 6th
Minor Major 7th Versus Minor 7th Versus Minor 6th
Dominant 7th Versus Minor 7th b5
All Chords Mixed Up
(Each comparison is preceded by a brief introduction preparing you for the exercise.)

Intro Drone
Exercise Drone
(I found this one helping me the most. Very clear instructions.)

Intro Chord Progressions
Exercise Chord Progressions
(Real music examples to check on your progress. There are 50 different chord progressions played by either a band or a solo piano. Great idea!)

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
