It seemed primarily directed a vocalists. At that time, he was calling it a "relative ear training course" and it appeared to be quite good if you are inclined to have a need for matching pitches and/or intervals as a singer or harmony vocalist would need to do. Les Bartlett mentioned that He & I tested his accompniest from Singapore. Her pitch abilities were (to me) quite remarkable. She would listen to a pitch, then leave the room. When she came back, she could tell if it were flat or sharp. 2 beats per sec. was too close for her to call, anything over that and she nailed it every time. She told us that she didn't think it was any big deal because everybody that went to her school had this degree of pitch accuracy. She also said they started drilling that into the students at about 4 years old. Why not call or write David Burge. I bet he will send you a sample lession. Danny Moore Houston Chapter
