EVCRT 121 - Ear Training I

Evan Fein, Jordyn Carmen
Ear Training I introduces a variety of fundamental concepts while setting students on a path toward mastery of the skills required to achieve a high level of musicianship. This highly interactive course challenges students to build their skills through a series of dictations and performance-based recitations. By the end of the course, students are fluent in treble and bass clef, fixed-do solfège, rhythmic performance with a variety of meters and subdivisions, and all diatonic intervals and triads. Students also gain experience with sight singing and melodic dictation. This is a yearlong course. Students may join in either fall or spring; however, spring placements are contingent on midyear vacancies. Prerequisites: Introduction to Ear Training, or equivalent; working knowledge of treble and bass clefs, all major and minor scales and key signatures, intervals through the Major Third, ability to read and perform rhythms with divisions of the beat in two, three, and four equal parts. Placement application required unless pre-approved to enroll.
