{"id":393,"count":49,"description":"Interval ear training can help you recognise notes and chords by ear. An <em>interval<\/em> is the distance in pitch between two notes. Different distances have different characteristic sounds, and so the <em>intervals<\/em> between notes have a big impact on the way those notes sound together.\r\n\r\nInterval ear training can help you learn to recognize and reproduce intervals, and connect the characteristic sounds with their corresponding names. This may seem a little abstract, but it will assist you in a variety of <em>real<\/em> musical tasks. <!--more-->\r\n\r\nFor example:\r\n\r\n<ul><li>Appreciate and understand <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.musical-u.com\/learn\/topic\/ear-training\/chords\/\">harmonies<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\r\n<li>Hear how <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.musical-u.com\/learn\/topic\/ear-training\/melodies\/\">melodies<\/a><\/strong> are constructed<\/li>\r\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.musical-u.com\/learn\/topic\/how-to\/play-by-ear\/\">Play by ear<\/a><\/strong>, using your improved sense of pitch distances<\/li>\r\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.musical-u.com\/learn\/topic\/how-to\/sight-read-music\/\">Sight-sing<\/a><\/strong> by using intervals to understand the sheet music<\/li>\r\n<li>Distinguish mistakes or inaccuracies in <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.musical-u.com\/learn\/topic\/ear-training\/pitch\/\">pitch<\/a><\/strong> and tuning<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nMost musicians start by learning to recognise the intervals in one octave:\r\n\r\n<div class=\"centerBlock\" style=\"width:80%\"><em>unison, semitone, tone, minor third, major third, perfect fourth, augmented fourth, perfect fifth, minor sixth, major sixth, minor seventh, major seventh,<\/em> and <em>perfect octave<\/em><\/div>\r\n\r\nThere are some other names for these too (e.g. <em>\"half step\", \"whole step\", \"tri-tone\",<\/em> etc.) but just 13 core intervals.
