Book Reviews of Beginning Ear Training (Ear Training: Exercises)

Book Review: Great for Beginners!
Summary: 5 Stars

I have yet to finish this book, but I love it!
It is a very incremental method - you start with do, re, and mi. Each chapter introduces one new solfege syllable and new rhythms. I also love that it features a full answer key. This feature make this an ideal book for self-study (which I do a lot). I have a lot of confidence that, by the time I finish this book, I will have the foundation necessary for delving into ear training at it's best!

Summary of Beginning Ear Training (Ear Training: Exercises)

These time-tested exercises will help you to play by ear. This book introduces the core skills of ear training. Step by step, you will learn to use solfege to help you internalize the music you hear and then easily transpose melodies to different keys. Learn to hear a melody and then write it down. Develop your memory for melodies and rhythms. Transcribe live performances and recordings. Listening is the most important skill in music, and this book will help you to listen better. Gilson Schachnik teaches ear training at Berklee College of Music. He is an active keyboardist, composer, and arranger, and has performed with Claudio Roditti, Mick Goodrick, Bill Pierce, and Antonio Sanchez.
