I’m 54 years old and decided to take up playing the keyboard about 4 years ago. I still have quite a ways to go but I’m confident I will get there. I didn’t believe it would work this well and in such a short time. I have been using this app consistently over past several days and I have been improving my note recognition far better than I ever thought I could. I was so excited about this ear trainer that I have developed a mobile app based on the Alain Benbassat method. The only requirement is to practice for 10 minutes a day. what musical instrument you play (you don't even have to play one). how old you are - a 3 yo kid or a 90+ adult who you are - an absolute beginner in music or a virtuoso professional musician You begin to recognize the role (or function) of each tone in this key, which is incredibly similar to its role in other keys of the same scale.Īnd it is *guaranteed* anyone can gradually develop this skill. The main difference between the Functional Ear Trainer and other methods is that it teaches you to distinguish between tones in the context of a particular musical key. It is based on Alain's method to learn to recognize tones. One day I came across Alain Benbassat's program called "Functional Ear Trainer" and have been using it ever since. It is like when somebody is talking to you, you not only hear pleasant sounds, but you recognize words and their meaning. However, although such programs develop your ear, but can you actually play any melody you hear as soon as you listen to it? Most likely you have already tried different programs to learn to recognize intervals or even to acquire perfect pitch. A good musical ear helps when you are composing, improvising, transcribing melodies, or playing with others. It is so important for a musician to know what you are hearing. Have you (or maybe one of your friends) ever wanted to learn to transcribe or play music by ear?
