Product Description

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.

The Internet as it should be
This book is great! I can download audio files from the muse-eek website and then sing along with it. I'm really starting to learn how to sing harmonies and how to hear them. I highly recommend getting Mr. Arnold's Ear Training CD's along with this book. The combination of both is really helping me.
