Introduction to Playing by Ear
About Introduction to Playing by Ear
A class aimed at beginners or intermediate music who haven't yet cracked the code on learning to play by ear.
The class will consist of an overview of the different skills and theory concepts that a musician will need to learn to enable them to begin playing songs entirely by ear. This will include how to hear all of the big three in music: rhythm, melody and harmony.
Students should expect to take notes, as this hour is designed to be educational, but also to open more doors for students than it closes.
