Summary

Traditional aural training is heavily biased toward the perception and identification of pitch and rhythm. The authors of this book argue that, in the current age of CDs and cassette recorders, much of this area of the subject can be best worked on alone. They demonstrate how, by tailoring tasks to individual needs, every student can make some encouraging progress in these aspects of the study of music.
