035: About Active Listening

Musicality Now

About this episode

What is "active listening" - and should you be doing it?

 

Musicians often make the mistake of thinking that "ear training" is just about specific concrete skills like recognising intervals or learning to adjust EQ bands on a mixer by ear.

 

But actually there's one big-picture skill that's possibly more important than all of those - as well as providing a great opportunity to put those skills to use. And that's active listening.

 

Learn more about what it is and a number of ways you can start doing it yourself, today, in this episode.
