Ear Training

Ear training (both relative pitch & perfect pitch) is essential for all musicians, songwriters, composers, and singers to better their skills.

The PurePitchMethod Audio Course For Ear Training

The PurePitchMethod ear training audio course is available for instant download online. It includes a manual and many audio files (in mp3 format) which can be downloaded and played on the computer. These files could also be put onto an mp3 player (such as a Zune or an iPod) or burned onto a CD for your convenience. In order to learn perfect pitch & relative pitch using this course all one really has to do is follow the manual and listen to the audio course. It includes testing so you can have proof of your improvement.

Similar Programs On Tape & CD

Prior to the internet revolution an ear training audio course like this would set you back at least a few hundred dollars. But one of the great things about the internet is that it's done away with the need for a lot of the materials and the shipping. Now you can just download these files directly to your computer which saves a lot of money. Because of that you can get it for much less than you would have had to pay for such a course on tape or CD in the past.

What Is Relative Pitch?

This is the ability to discern the relationship between two or more notes. Such as being able to tell what kind of chord someone is playing (like a "Major 7th") but not necessarily knowing what chord it is (ie "G Major 7th.") Another example of this type of ability is to know what the relationship between two notes is. For example a "perfect fifth" or a "minor third." Relative pitch is essential for all musicians.

What Is Perfect Pitch?

This is the ability to know exactly what a note is without hearing any reference note. In other words you could walk into a room "cold" and hear a single note on a piano and know instantly what note it is. This is a great skill which in the past was thought to be only for those who were "born with it." But it's now known that using PurePitchMethod you can actually develop this skill even if you were not born with it.
