As a musician and practicing conductor, I have learned to appreciate the importance of a “good ear.” In music, whether one is playing an instrument, singing, or conducting, a multitude of aspects, such as energy and projection, singing together, diction and expression, pitch accuracy, tone quality, correct rhythm, concentration and focus, and posture must be under constant analysis. As you may imagine, it can be quite difficult to pay close attention to all of the above aspects at the same time, making it priority for musicians to develop a good ear. While there are many outlets available to students who wish to practice this development, many of them involve the participation of ones peers and teachers…until now! Thanks to Ear Training on the Net, students now have the opportunity to practice aural training in the privacy and comfort of their own homes, without feeling the pressure of having to perform flawlessly. Whether its intervals, chords, scales, or cadences that you wish to perfect, this site has multiple ways in which one can learn to comprehend these concepts. The web is truly amazing, and has once again provided a terrific resource to be used within the wonderful world of music!

This is a wonderful website for both beginning, intermediate, and continuing students! I really like this site and use it often. I think it would be best suited in a high school class setting, but the possibilities are endless!
