Ear Training 102 - Harmony and Chord Progressions 2.1.0

In the Ear Training 102 course you learned how to identify melodic notes and intervals. In this exercise-filled, 49-video course, Gregg Fine teaches you how to hear chords and harmonies. Educate your ears!

Imagine listening to a piece of music and immediately knowing what chords and harmonies are being performed. Then imagine being able to easily write down those chord progressions by simply listening, rather than “fishing around” on a keyboard or guitar. This course, designed by our music theory expert Gregg Fine, will get you on your way to hearing music vertically so you can identify, chord types, colors, added notes and progressions!

Greg takes you on a step-by-step ear training journey in this beautifully designed course. You start with 2 notes (dyads), move on to 3 notes (triads) and then slowly work your way up to multi note 7th chords and beyond!

Greg has meticulously created more than 30 deep listening exercise tutorials in this course for you to practice over and over again to assure that you master the art of hearing music vertically (chords and harmonies) as the lessons proceed.

By the time you complete this course, and the associated exercise files, you will be well on your way to hearing music like you’ve never heard it before.

Have fun as you educate your ears!
