What about enharmonics? Do you also hear and recogninze them? It's rare to find instruments playing only a single pitch, say A440. This would be a sine wave. So, a person with perfect pitch is able to hear those enharmonics?

Thanks for your sharing! I think I will try. My plan is going to distinguish the notes C4, D4, E4, F4, G4, and A4 first, A4 is about 440 Hz. If I can learn these notes, I will add sharp and flat notes later on. I don't have a partner to practice with so I found the Tenuto website, which let us customize the notes we want to learn, then plays them randomly then we need to guess it. The website is free, but if you want to support the developers, you can buy the app on iOS or Android for a one-time payment. Anyone can check it out.

Could you help do a demonstration video on how exactly you did the C, D and E noted training with your sister? And how you corrected yourself when you made a mistake. Thanks and appreciated!
@horriefic
@horriefic 27 күн бұрын
When your sister played the notes C, D and E for you, how long between each note ie. roughly what tempo? Was it like a note every second, or longer like a note every 2-3 seconds? I have been playing these 3 notes on my piano for about 5 mine, and recording it on my phone! Then listening to it over and over again. Am playing it at about 1 note per second, which is kinda fast as the next note starts before I can really ‘feel’ the note. So wondering what you did exactly with regard to the time between each note. But then you said it’s important to correct yourself when you make a mistake. So what actually happened was your sister would play a note and you would say out what note (C,D,E) it was and if correct your sister would play the next note, and if wrong you would do the correction by playing the note you said and then the actual correct note. Is this how you did it? Thanks in advance!

I can easily hear the Major and minor 3rd difference and I somehow can always tell if an A is playing or a C and I can reproduce them out of no where, but not any other notes. One night I did just feel like I understood it and I could tell every single note apart easily, but after that, I only have A and C in my head.

Eric Whitacre uses this quite a bit, even though his music is completely tonal. He uses diatonic tone clusters, which would sound horrible on their own, but they are always eased into with good voice leading and resolve. Like you said, there's a context for everything.

Because Rhoades said at one point he used the "flash" (i.e. tapping which was real popular at the time) to impress the "kids" in his solo, and he hated doing it, but didn't have the "time" to compose his own "flashy" solo. I love Van Halen, but he didn't have the music depth that Rhoades had (here we are discussing music theory of his song 40 years later, not so much of that with Van Halen stuff, but he was a genius in other ways obviously). Also of note, Van Halen was under the influence when he said it. The simple fact of the matter is that because it was even brought up, Eddie knew he had a peer guitar player, and another fact is that the world is a much better place with both of them being it it at one point in time and miss them both. Saying one is better than the other is like saying the color Red is better than the color Blue or some other color comparison. Just pointless, but we all have our preferences, I just wish Randy would not have gotten on that G-damned plane!

Thank you for part 2- somehow I am just seeing it now. You have a very calm, grounded manner of presentation, and I perceive no hype at all. It is difficult to not think in terms of reference notes. However, without any reference notes, from time to time, I have found myself 'knowing' what key a piece is in. It seems to occur when I am doing something else with music playing in the background and usually happens for the keys of C and D, but sometimes C sharp and B flat. Another interesting thing is that when I sit at the piano and look at the keyboard or look at some sheet music, I often know what the note will sound like before I play it. This is very encouraging and tells me that 'something' is going on in my mind - even though it is not real reliable. I am now subscribed so if you decide to do a pt 3, I am there! Thank you

Hmmm. Very interesting, and I agree with you. On the complexity page, I totally agree with that too. Some of the most beautiful music in my opinion is something that is not complex actually. There still are some good complex pieces. But you are totally right! In my opinion. I don’t find much interest in modern music, and I didn’t know if that was just me or what. But my affection lies in the more older composers such as Rachmaninov, Beethoven, Mahler, etc. over time, it also feels as if modern music such as electronic and singing is what some composers in the present day have in there mindset. They lean more towards modern day non-orchestral music by default because that’s what they have heard growing up. I do the same thing. Overall I pretty much agree with you.

Hey actually serious question, are they stopping you from revealing the contents of the dvds completely or something? There must be something you can give us as a baseline to start learning absolute pitch. On David Burge’s website it says you will hear a change immediately. I definitely believe that if there was something this valuable to musicians it should not be behind a pay wall. There are videos of how to learn pretty much everything involving music on youtube and a real tutorial on how to learn absolute pitch should be one of them. I genuinely want a reply to see what you think about this.

I took the Burgess course decades ago when I was first thinking about being an actual musician. I was more curious than anything else since I've kind of always been able to play what I heard even without early lessons, etc. I think he started on F# and Bb and something happened about week 3 and then it has been pretty strong ever since. I love hearing this way, hearing into the note, into the sound. Yes, I went on in music even without much of a background as a kid, and have a doctorate in conducting. I am now teaching at university level in Community Music in Canada and much of my research is in the larger area of Listening, which is great. I think people have all kinds of weird superpowers and being able to learn exceptional listening opens us to the most amazing world. There really are no limits. This is an awesome video and I love your narration. OMG I see C as white too! F as brown. G as green. But that is another story. Thanks for this.

@@pizzahacker4526 Have to think about it. Like many musicians who play 1 or more instruments, I have good sense of relative pitch but not PP. Give me the first note of a song, I can play the rest of it in that key on a violin. Give me a single note and ask me what it is sometimes I get it wrong. If I listen to a big enough chunk of a piece like Mozart Divertimento I can tell it's in D major. I arrange pieces for piano originally for other instruments on a computer program. I can hear from the playback if a note is supposed to be natural, sharp or flat (based on the notes before & after as reference).
