Minor Keys for Ear Training Development

Minor Keys for Ear Training Development

Q: Ok that helps explain it a little better… But you say the reason the Ear Training One Note Complete CDs are in the key of C is because all scales are the same, but what about minor keys? A minor chord progression, say the tonic, is two minor thirds, whereas a major one is a major and a minor… could you explain that?

Also, I contacted the AbsolutePerfectPitch creator, and he says it works for all instruments… one individual who used the CDs said he could even tell the tone of car horns afterwards!

A: You will work on Minor keys once you start the Key Note Recognition book. I limit your beginning studies to major to help you first understand and do the technique before adding in other key centers types.

If you believe the creator of AbsolutePerfectPitch then more power to you. I’ve told you what I have found to be true whether you believe it is up to you.
