🎹 Keyboard Ear Training👂🏻

Ever wondered how some people can just hear a song and play it instantly on their instrument? That’s the power of ear training - and the keyboard is a fantastic tool to develop it!

What is Keyboard Ear Training? 🎶

Simply put, it’s the practice of recognising musical pitches by ear and knowing exactly where to find them on the keyboard. It helps students connect what they hear to what they play, making music feel more natural and intuitive.

Why Does It Matter? 💡

  • Better Pitch Recognition – Imagine hearing a tune and knowing exactly which notes to play - no sheet music needed! This skill helps students identify notes by ear and play with confidence.

  • Stronger Musical Memory – Music is built on patterns of pitches. When students learn to recognise these pitches and their patterns, they remember songs more easily and retain what they’ve learned for longer.

  • More Confidence in Improvisation – When students can hear a note and immediately play it, they can create music on the spot - whether they’re jamming with friends or composing their own melodies.
