Music Theory / Ear Training classes that you can put on your iPod?

[ChrisAlgoo]

Can someone recommend something that you can listen to on long train rides and learn what different things sound like? Ideally it shouldn't require any books or writing, just someone talking into your ear and playing some intervals and rhythms and things.

 

Thanks!

What do you want specifically. I can put something on Finale and save it as a mp3 and email it to you.

Intervals in the major scale?

scales?

maj/min/aug/dim chords?

 

pm me your email.

The only actual program that I've ever personally used is the Jamey Aebersold Ear Training Program. It is a fantastic program but more advanced.

 

For a more fundamental based program try the one from Musician's Institute. I haven't personally used it but I know they make good products.

 

Please make sure you sit at the piano as well and study sounds. When I was in college I did over 1200 hours of this and that's been the true difference.

I have a Droid (Motorola) phone and there is an ear-training app available- "Ear Coach" by Nautilus. Maybe it is available for iPhone too?
