Essential Ear Training for Today's Musician

Series: Berklee Guide
Berklee Press Publications

The Ear Training curriculum of Berklee College of Music is known and respected throughout the world. Now, for the first time, this unique method has been captured in one comprehensive book by the chair of the Ear Training Department.
This method teaches musicians to hear the music they are seeing, notate the music they have composed or arranged, develop their music vocabulary, and understand the music they are hearing.
The book features a complete course with text and musical examples, and studies in rhythm, sight recognition, sol-fa, and melody.

Features:
• Complete course with text and musical examples
• Rhythmic Studies that free the student from solfège and key signatures
• Sight Recognition Studies focusing on solfège, removing the element of rhythm
• Sol-fa Studies that focus on solfège without the added difficulty of note reading
• Melodic Studies containing examples similar to those found in a musician’s daily work
