Tomo Fujita Guitar Wisdom

Hi professor and guitar wisdom members.
1) Can you suggest how to approach ear training intervals i try sing nto -re , nto -mi.... etc and i do this for a while now and when i sing them in order i can hear them and sing them i also can identify some scale degrees! I sing nto-re-nto mi-re-nto , fa-mi-nto, sol-mi-nto,(or sol-la-ti-nto) , la-ti-nto,ti-nto and its an excellent exercise i can feel the tension and where the note want to resolve i highly recommend it! The thing that i can't do so good is to sing nto-fa for example if i don't sing the sequence (nto-re-mi-fa!) Do you recommend to try to play two intervals only for a day and try to rest and sing them back or maybe learn and internalise melodies from songs to remember the intervals! This is a popular method!

The other question is that when i sing fretboard without memorization in other scale than C should I sing the 1 us nto or should i sing the exact note!

Thank you very for everything professor guitar wisdom give me so much joy every day!

Thank you so much professor for answering. Yes i have watch multiple times! OK thank you i will try to study to play Do and then try to sing Mi then Sol and after I become proficient with that i will try Fa , La and then Re and Ti!

For the second question! It's not about singing intervals from the root! When i study the learning the fretboard without memorization in G for example when i study the second string and play open B should i sing B or Mi that is the M3!

Thank you for your time! 🙏

You're very welcome!
So glad to hear that!

Yes! It's simple but you need to do this really slowly.
After your hear C root or C Triad... wait about 4-5 seconds ..
Then sing that pitch that you are imagining.

Essential theory section.
I use my one string approach on each videos (Now up to ET13 as new videos)
Please watch those lesson videos.

Any key, any position(s)
You should be able to hear Major 3rd note super clear!

In that case, you need to find all B note on the fretboard!
Fun thing to do! Do you know al B(s)?

Thank you.

Hi Markos
Great question and something I need to get to grips with. I have tried the approach of thinking of a tune you know with the first notes as the interval eg when the saints go marching=M3, sort of works but you have a long thought process to go through to identify the interval.

Tomo's way I feel is the best way, even though I can't do it .....yet:) And Tomo's advise because of your question has made things much clearer to me. I'm guessing the 4-5 second pause between root and singing the interval is very important, slow down to learn faster. (going slow I find very difficult)

I'm off to do some ear training, good luck with yours.
All the best
