Not a professinal musician, but It's funny how I got the second excercise. I recognized a perfect fourth interval, and then I spotted the G relavitely to the given C.... So I told my self...I hear a fourth, so the other note can't be nothing else than D. Crazy brain.
Hi Noah! How would you recommend practicing ear training on our own? There aren't many videos like this on UA-cam, so it's pretty hard to find good ways to practice this stuff.
JT Music Hey JT, one great way of doing it is through listening to recordings- find a single chord by a pianist and see if you can figure out what all the notes are. Otherwise, great to also work on this stuff with a friend!
I’m going to take your advice on the songs! Also do you teach lessons? I would love to have a couple lessons on this specific topic, as it has been my biggest hill to overcome for the longest time.
You refer to this as a lesson, but what exactly is the lesson? You're simply playing notes and asking if people can tell what they are. There is no break down of methodology, no helpful tips for those not in the know. It's the application of technique without the explanation of technique. I have seen the previous ear training video you did and that's not much better.
Yeah, vast majority of 'teachers' simply expects you to remember separate notes, chords and intervals. But what if you can't? Here are lessons you asked for: ua-cam.com/video/QZg8_wTkhnM/v-deo.html Step 1: sing stable notes along melody line. Sing stable notes, not C, E, G. If you are not accustomed with solfeggio system you likely will find it cumbersome because 'sol' could easily be sang as C and 'do' as B, but I advice slowly move to solfeggio, if you already not familiar with it. With all 30 lessons you can sing do-mi-sol-sol-mi-do sequence 100+ times easily. Step 2: identify stable notes ('do', 'mi' and 'sol') by ear. You already know them, it is just a matter of picking the right ones. From the first try pick up only stable notes and don't care if you are not picking right unstable ('re' and 'fa'). Do not loose your focus, do not become mad if you catch your singing is out of tune with a record (it's normal). Step 3: with third listen start picking right unstable notes, listen and hear how 're' and 'fa' sounds different from stable notes (you should already notice that from previous listens). Start to pick up certain relationship (sound) between unstable and adjacent stable notes (thus, concept of neighboring and passing notes will start to make sense). From the fourth listen you should be able to pick up all notes right. It is four days, 30 lessons, approximately 90 minutes a day.. Of course it's just a start but very very important one. Another layer of ear training is identifying rhythms and you will quickly find out stable melodic notes constantly falling on accented rhythmic notes in many tunes.
there is something about linking back to older video but i am not seeing that link. Which one should i watch?
more videos like this would be amazing
Actually do have one or two in the works for the not-too-distant future!

Jo A I do! Shoot me an email to JazzPianoConcepts@gmail.com and we can set one up.
U left the video up when u played the f triad so we knew what it was.
ah yeah that was an editing mistake. Good for a warm up :p how'd you do with the other exercises?
@@NoahKellman The exercises went great! Thanks for all the great content on this channel!
That last one drives me nuts. I can't hear the D!!!!!!!
I cant hear the A flat for some reason

lessons definitely not for beginners more I would say an advanced lesson very helpful
Yeah now that you mentioned it
