Course Number One:

"Intervals: The Key To BIG Ears!"

An interval is the distance between any two notes. When you hear a melody, can you hear what intervals are being used? Do you know when a singer is moving up a minor 6th, or down a perfect 4th? You can in time -- and this CD drills you on intervals from unisons to octaves. You'll learn the difference between consonant and dissonant intervals, major, minor, and perfect intervals, and how they invert.

Here are the intervals you will learn to recognize when you hear them:

2nds
Minor 2nds
3rds
Minor 3rds
Perfect 4ths
Augmented 4ths
Perfect 5ths
Diminished 5ths
6ths
Minor 6ths
7ths Minor 7ths
Octaves

In this great CD course we will drill on hearing each interval and identifying them.

Course Number Two:

"Training Your Ear To Hear Chords"

How To Hear Differences in Chord Types

Each type of chord gives off a mood of its own. By associating the mood, or emotion, with a specific chord type, you can soon learn to distinguish between the basic kinds of triads:

Major
Minor
Diminished
Augmented

For example, minor chords sound more somber, more serious, than major chords. Why? Because of the way the intervals are "stacked" within the chord. A diminished chord sounds suspenseful, tense, nervous. An augmented chord has a distinctive sound, too. Learn how to hear, feel, and identify these chords, as well as extended chords (you'll learn how to listen for the "color tone" in any 4-note chord).

Here are the color tones we'll listen for:

6ths
7ths
9ths

Once you can identify the 4 types of triads, and then recognize the color tones, it is a short step to recognizing chords such as minor 7ths, minor 6ths, diminished 7ths, major 9ths, and so on.

Course Number Three:

"How To Hear Far-Out Harmonies And Understand Them"

How To Hear Far-Out Harmonies And Understand Them

What makes a harmony "far-out"? Extensions to the basic triad. You'll learn to listen for the root -- the bass line -- the tonal center. Then you'll determine whether the 5th is perfect, augmented, or diminished. Then you'll listen for the chief color tone, whether it be a 6th, 9th, or whatever. You'll learn to listen, analyze, listen, analyze, and then listen some more.

Here's what we will drill on:

Extensions of a triad -- 6th
Extensions of a triad -- 7th (dominant)
Extensions of a triad -- maj7
Extensions of a triad -- flat 9th
Extensions of a triad -- 9th
Extensions of a triad -- flat 10th
Extensions of a triad -- 11th (suspension)
Extensions of a triad -- sharp 11ths
Extensions of a triad -- 13th
Combinations of all the above
