Why do students need to learn Aural interval recognition?
Aural recognition of intervals helps to improve sight singing, and audiation skills.
Aurally identifying intervals is required in many instrumental exams, and Musicianship/Music Craft exams:
- Many school music courses require interval recognition, or aural melodic dictation work, especially in senior school.
- Australian Music Exam Board (AMEB) instrumental & vocal exams have an aural section which requires aural interval recognition for grades 3, 4. 5 & 6.
- AMEB Musicianship exams require aural interval recognition for grades 4, 5 & 6.
- Trinity College instrumental/vocal exams test aural interval recognition in grades 3 & 4
- Being able to easily recognise intervals by ear will help students gain ability as musicians, and improve their song writing, sight singing, composition, melody dictation, and playing by ear skills, just to name a few.
Although this game is intended to be used with teacher and pupil in an individual lesson, it could also be used with an older student taking the teachers’ role in a practice session or group class. Distance Learning? This game is IDEAL for Skype or Zoom type online lessons!
