An essential part of musicianship! This realistic first-year program of sight singing and ear training presents a broadly based approach to music reading as an essential and integral part of musicianship and exhibits a sharp focus on essential skills. The authors developed and tested the materials in their classes at the Juilliard School of Music, refining them to enhance accessibility and improve learning. Special features include: arranges specific concepts and problems in a carefully graded order based upon performance difficulty; isolates specific rhythmic and pitch problems and then drills them in a concentrated form but in a variety of music contexts; includes copious examples of each problem in actual music; stimulates readers’ creative imagination through the consistent employment of assignments that require original work.

Just as an artist must know every color in order to create a beautiful painting, a musician must know and hear all the notes of the musical "palette" in order to create good music. This ear training method has been developed to teach the student how to hear the way musical sounds are organized within a key. With proper application, the student will be able to: recognize notes without depending on an instrument; identify which notes other musicians are playing; instantly know what key a chord progression is in; sing or transcribe the notes in a given melody. This method differs ... in that it develops the ability to identify and name all twelve pitches within a key center. ... [A] student gains the ability to identify sound based on it's relationship to a key and not the relationship of one note to another--P. [4] of cover and p. [77]
