    Ear Training
    What is ear training?
    As musicians we train our ears so that we are able to identify Intervals and
    Rhythms just by listening. When we get more advanced we can work on
    identifying Harmony with our ears, but for now we will focus on intervals and
    rhythms.
    Terms to know
    Interval- The space between two notes

    Quality- the type of interval

    Major=happy

    Minor=sad

    Perfect=a fourth or a fifth

    Let’s look at some intervals!


    Major Intervals
    Here is a list of the major
    intervals.

    Our songs
    Choose your song and the aspect (Melody, bass, drums) of
    the song that you want to practice.
    Think about how you are going to present your song (Will
    you play piano, sing along with the song, play the rhythms
    on the drums, etc.) and begin practicing the part of your
    Exit ticket-
    song that you will present.
