About this listen
Hi, fellow music lover! Congratulations on starting your music-making journey.
This lesson is broken into several chapters. The first part focuses on interval identification exercises, starting with grouped intervals and ending with all intervals mixed up. The second part of the book focuses on extremely valuable exercises with the help of fifths. The third part is a simple yet powerful exercise that allows you to manifest the sound of each interval even more.
The fourth part focuses on chord identification exercises, starting with grouped chords and ending with all chords mixed up. The fifth part of the book focuses on extremely valuable exercises with the help of a drone. The last part brings you very close to a real-life situation. Short chord progressions played by either a full band or a solo piano put your ears to the final test.
Best of all, this lesson doesn’t limit itself to dry theory: after a brief introduction to every concept, we completely focus on listening exercises to sharpen your ear.
Oh, and before I forget, the most important tip of all: have fun!

Many famed music producers are known for a particular sound that has its day. Rick Rubin is known for something else: creating a space where artists of all different genres and traditions can home in on who they really are and what they really offer. He has made a practice of helping people transcend their self-imposed expectations in order to reconnect with a state of innocence from which the surprising becomes inevitable. Over the years, he has learned that being an artist isn’t about your specific output, it’s about your relationship to the world.

Story
The very strange but nevertheless true story of the dark underbelly of a 1960s hippie utopia. Laurel Canyon in the 1960s and early 1970s was a magical place where a dizzying array of musical artists congregated to create much of the music that provided the soundtrack to those turbulent times. But there was a dark side to that scene as well. Many didn't make it out alive, and many of those deaths remain shrouded in mystery to this day.

Ear training is one of the most rewarding skills you can develop, and it’s one that you can work on every day. Which makes total sense: Music is an aural experience, after all. Ear training helps you turn the music you hear into music you make on your guitar. This works for your own musical ideas, too: When you dream up a great riff or chord progression, you naturally want to sit down and play it right away. Ear training helps you do just that.

Playing music should be as simple and natural as drawing a breath, yet most musicians are hindered by self-consciousness, apprehension, self-doubt, and stress. Before we can truly express our inner self, we must first learn to be at peace and overcome the distractions that can make performance difficult. Kenny's remarkable work deals directly with these hindrances, and presents ways to let our natural creative powers flow freely with minimal stress and effort.

Good Method, Good Piano Sound, Plenty of Exercises
I was curious what the difference between this course and the other one for guitar might be. All exercises are played on piano instead of guitar. Besides, this course uses a different method. I'm glad it's been making a great addition to the ear training course for guitar!
I like that all intervals are played up, down, and simultaneously. This way, I could get an even better feeling for each interval. The two additional exercises, next to interval recognition, have clear instructions. Every listener should know what to do here.
Every chord is well introduced. You will know what to listen for. Two additional exercises round off the chords section. I especially like the musical examples! The sound is great!
Conclusion
Great method, good piano sound, plenty of exercises. If you really want to become a better musician, you can't go wrong with this course. No matter what instrument you play, check out Ear Training Course for Guitar: Scales. Perfect complement if you ask me!
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
