A Fanatic's Guide to Ear Training and Sight Singing Volume One

by Bruce E. Arnold

Fanatic's Guide differs from the myriad of other sight singing books in that it develops the ability to identify and name all twelve pitches within a key center. Through this method a student gains the ability to identify sound based on it's relationship to a key and not the relationship of one note to another i.e. interval training as commonly taught in many texts. THIS SPIRAL VERSION CONTAINS A CD WITH THE BOOK. All note groupings from one to six notes are presented giving the student a thesaurus of basic note combinations which develops sight singing and note recognition to a level unattainable before this Guide's existence. This book is a required text at the New York University and Princeton University Music departments.
