Ear Training Lessons
We use our hearing so much in music that it's no wonder that ear training is important to musicians! By training your ear, you will learn how to hear different intervals (very useful for performing and tuning), hear different rhythms, and much more! In fact, ear training is so important, all music schools require it in order to graduate.
