No, I do not play violin.

My instruments are voice, harmonica and keyboards.

About reading, don't really give a care about it. Just want to be better at playing by ear, so I thought of...

Guys, I have not figured out if you are allowed to first figure out the songs mentally, before physically playing them.

You may have guess correctly, I do not work with any teacher.
I own some...

My pitch identification skills have more so improved mentally. To me, this means that whatever sound/tone(s) I mentally reconstruct is identified absolutely.

This I am able to do without any...

Over time I have developed a good sense of pitch memory. This ability enables me to identify imagined tones absolutely.

Yet, the accuracy and speed seem to differ from various situations.
What...

Awesome, thanks "JonR".

Indeed, I find working with real music enjoyable and very challenging.

Peace,

To my conclusion, Amin never mentioned to proof perfect pitch in his video(s). Neither do I believe it is possible to proof it, certainly not in form of video.

On the other hand, I will mention...

In time, you might want to look for other ways to demonstrate your pitch identification skills. We could easily say you rehearsed your test, since you recorded the test yourself beforehand.

On...

You are thus saying that understanding is not enough, you need to hear it aswell. That seems hard to do, but doable nevertheless.

I also own Bruce Arnold's "One Note Advanced" material as well as...

Could I be missing the eartraining purpose if I were to use my tonal memory to get to the answers during melodic dictation?
(For this task I am using EarMaster Pro 5)

Right now, I am at lesson...

Hi,

I have what I would like to call a strong developed tonal memory. This ability enables me to recall tones and name these by ear, perhaps much like perfect pitch.

In short, 'cause I...

Well, most of us will read otherwise that RP is actually a rightbrain function and AP a leftbrain function ;)

Hence I mention external, for there must be a reference when using scale degrees.

Hi,

I have this question about my daily practice with "Functional Ear Trainer".
In the beginning, last week,...

Hi Jules,

In my understanding, when you are asked to do 2 verification rounds, it does mean the first 20 verifications correct and then another 20.
You are not asked to do 40 in a row.

He...

True, it takes time for the ear to develop and I do notice improvement in accuracy and speed daily. It's an awesome experience!

Yes, I've read about it many times: "Keep playing your instrument"...

Thank you much, JazzMick!

Yes, I am very much a beginner at ear training and playing any instrument.
My main interest for the moment is wanting to learn the keyboards/synth and ofcourse to hear...

Okay, please...

How precisely do I work on the recognition of the scale degrees?

I'm talking about the whole deal here, because I am an ultimate noob at ear training at the moment.

Take...

I know, I know, I have been putting this question on you for like the fourth time now but hey!

Today I read another comment about ear training. This is what this guy says in regard to knowing your...

I don't know how I progressed fast, or faster then most of the PP course users. Well, I do know I spend alot of time on the drills each day. Much more then David suggested.

Also do I not...

If you're in a race with somebody, probably. If you're not, it still does not matter I think. As long as you notice improvement once a while you're doing good.

Try to compare the questioned tone...

Well, I don't remember what David said about that actually.

I think that at some point you won't have to play them seperately anymore.
You should be able to hear all of them and ID them.

I...

Hi Falcon,

When getting to a three or four tone chord, you might wanna try to play them first as a whole (chord) then play them one by one after the other.

A variation could be to play the...

Start by indending not be frustrated anymore and keep your thoughts positive about it.

It is better to say something like "I am NOW relaxed and totally at ease with these exerices" instead of "I...
