Functional Ear Trainer
The ability to transcribe or play music by ear is vital for any musician. Having a good musical ear can greatly enhance composing, improvising, transcribing melodies, and playing with others. While some programs exist to help develop this skill by recognizing intervals or acquiring perfect pitch, the key is being able to play any melody as soon as you hear it.
Alain Benbassat's program, the Functional Ear Trainer, offers a unique approach by teaching individuals to distinguish tones within the context of a specific musical key. This method helps users recognize the function of each tone within the key, making it easier to apply the same principles to other keys within the scale.
Regardless of musical background or age, the Functional Ear Trainer promises gradual skill development through just 10 minutes of daily practice. A new mobile app based on this method has been created to provide convenient access to this valuable training tool. Elevate your musical abilities by honing your ear with this innovative program.
