Gehörbildung An Musikhochschulen werden die Melodiediktate zum Bestehen der Aufnahmeprüfung vorausgesetzt. Ein polyphoner Satz muss hierbei möglichst fehlerfrei nach dem Vorspielen auf dem Klavier notiert werden. Seit 2010 wird diese traditionelle Praxis vor dem Hintergrund der aufkommenden Forderung nach einer kompetenzorientierten Vermittlung von Inhalten sowohl an Schulen als auch an Musikhochschulen und Universitäten hinterfragt.[1] Ebenso ist Gehörbildung ein fester Bestandteil der Abiturprüfung im Leistungskurs Musik einiger Bundesländer. Anfangs trainiert man das Gehör, Intervalle sukzessiv und simultan zu bestimmen. Rhythmusdiktate und das Hören von Tonfolgen münden in das Melodiediktat. Des Weiteren beinhaltet die Gehörbildung auch die Erfassung verschiedener Akkordgruppen. Siehe auch[Bearbeiten] Literatur[Bearbeiten] Einzelnachweise[Bearbeiten] Hochspringen ↑ A.
Ear Training WebSite ET-000 • Ear Training Index Page Ear Training (or Aural Training) is a very important part of musical development. Learning to recognise sounds will help you in many ways, most importantly it will help you Transcribe and accelerate your ability to work out songs on your own. It really can be quite incredible and I have had many students say that after a few months of consistent work on Ear Training that they can hear music better, that they can separate the instruments easier and hear new depths in recordings they thought they knew well. I grew up transcribing, it was the way I learned to play songs, but when I started doing Interval Ear Training it took it to a whole new level. Doing a lot of transcribing will teach you the intervals sonically and to some extent on the neck, but once you know the names of the intervals too it makes it easier because you can 'put a tag on it' and know for sure what it is. Harmonic vs Melodic Intervals There are two types of interval listening, harmonic and melodic. Rhythmic Dictation
Ear training Functional pitch recognition[edit] Many musicians use functional pitch recognition in order to identify, understand, and appreciate the roles and meanings of pitches within a key. To this end, scale-degree numbers or movable-do solmization (do, re, mi, etc.) can be quite helpful. Using such systems, pitches with identical functions (the key note or tonic, for example) are associated with identical labels (1 or do, for example). Functional pitch recognition is not the same as fixed-do solfège, e.g. do, re, mi, etc. Functional pitch recognition has several strengths. Functional pitch recognition has some weaknesses. Interval recognition[edit] Chord recognition[edit] Microtonal chord and interval recognition[edit] The process is similar to twelve-tone ear training, but with many more intervals to distinguish. Rhythm recognition[edit] One way musicians practice rhythms is by breaking them up into smaller, more easily identifiable sub-patterns. Timbre recognition[edit] Transcription[edit]
Scales | Theta Music Trainer A scale is a set of notes grouped together in a specific pattern. The most commonly used scale in popular music is the major scale. The notes of the major scale are numbered from 1 to 8, with the tonic assigned the number 1 and other tones moving up in sequence to the octave, which is number 8. Major Scales In the major scale, notes are arranged in a specific sequence of half steps and whole steps. To construct a major scale from any starting tone, use the following arrangement of whole steps (W) and half steps (H): Here are some examples: Notice that the pattern of whole steps and half steps (W-W-H-W-W-W-H) is always the same regardless of which tone is used for the tonic. The first step in ear training is to learn the pattern for the major scale and the numbers for each note in the scale. Minor Scales Compared to major scales, minor scales have a darker and heavier sound. Here is the pattern of whole steps (W) and half steps (H) used to create a minor scale: Paddle Tones Play Tone Drops Play
