Ear Training Lessons in Pasadena. Amazing Teachers.

More comprehensive instruction in music theory and ear-training, already integrated into piano lessons, is offered in separate classes as well.

I have been teaching this subject for over 17 years. There is no specific curriculum as each student will come to lessons with their own unique skills, needs, and goals. Lessons are tailored to those specifics. Lessons involve building aural skills including interval and chord (triads and 7ths) identification, harmonic and melodic dictation, sight singing, and other exercises. Lessons are particularly useful in augmenting classroom study and performance projects.

I study ear training at the college at study at. I also use ear training in my everyday music life.

I teach you how to understand what you are hearing in music. I then teach you how to translate that into the notes you need to play. I also give you improvisation techniques to take your ear playing to the next level.

Learn about intervals...

Do you have trouble "staying in tune" when you sing/play? Do you have trouble learning/hearing harmonies? Do you want to be able to learn songs just by listening to them?

If so, then ear-training is for you! We will work together to develop your ear, learning to fine-tune your intonation, to analyze what you're hearing and divide up parts, track a harmony, and transcribe or memorize what you hear in recordings. Start now!
