207: What Is Ear Training? (and why does it normally fail?)
About this episode
For this episode of Musicality Now, we turned the tables on our usual format. Adam Liette, Musical U Operations Manager is taking over for our normal host, Christopher Sutton – and Christopher is our guest!
Adam sat down with Christopher and asked him two important questions:
1. One that many musicians think they know the answer to: "What is ear training?"
2. And one that is a sticking point for most music learners: "Why isn't ear training working?"
If you're watching or listening to this show, you know the benefits of a great musical ear. But how do you get there? If you, like many others, find ear training hard or frustrating, you won't want to miss this conversation.
