HI, Allan! Ear training is so test my patience , Like Jeffrey say : You won't feel results while you are playing it's the consistency over time that's making it all happen. But that's easier to said hard to done.
Want to stick to a principle is so hard : You need to hear all the notes before you can play them , if you can't hear them , play them very slowly.
I 've made some mistakes in the last three months , first I ignore degree and don't think this when ear training , just sing Do Re Mi , sing and playing at same time to do , this is a disaster! because I do this about 1 month, when I want to propel the lesson , I can't . Some work is doesn't work , so I need learn again.
But second learn , I think I wasted a lot of time in the first month , So I have to make up for my rate , So I decide learn three key 's ear training and do same key's triad practice . So the result is , I need to do more than an hour of ear training, one time to practice this content . And try to remember these key name of note , still sing and playing at same time , many works , so hard to do , there were several days in between when I didn't do the exercise .
This went on for some time , my way it's doesn't work , I 'm confuse.
But this time , I really want to say thank you for our friend Sergio 's post , " Do Re Mi "Sing with his wife , I got the tip there from Tomo , First sing , then can playing note! Really appreciate our GW family 's help !
So time come to three month , I decide choice one key , G . And really to slow to do this : need think about the degree , name of note , fist is sing , then play .
And choice to stay this practice more time , about 3 weeks , but now I have problem , I think I really know the G key of major, I think I did the above points , but I still have four days left on my practice calendar.
Today I decide to keep my promise , continue practicing for four days , even though I want to push my progress .
Let's growing together and keep going ! Never give up!
