EAR TRAINING 004: Developing Triad Harmony

 
 NEW  Musicians rely on their ears for everything they do. This means that the ability to accurately listen to and quickly recognize musical, tone and pitch is vital. The EAR TRAINING course offered at Creative Guitar will help guitar players drastically improve their sense of note identification, recognition and recall...


Lesson 004 of Ear Training Lesson four of "Ear Training" focuses on the sound and structure of developing the sound of triad harmony.

EAR TRAINING - DISCLAIMER:
If you have no prior experience with basic music theory, basic rhythm, key signatures and how scales work on the guitar, it is strongly advised to first study the Creative Guitar - Introductory Guitar Program, as well as, the Intermediate Guitar Program.

If you are a guitarist that has no background in basic music theory, key signatures, treble-clef staff /note recognition, or foundational rhythmic duration, then it is advised that prior to working on this course, you study the "Introductory" and "Intermediate" guitar player programs prior to working on this course.

Those preliminary courses, (for beginners and Intermediate players), will lay the foundation for understanding how the nuts and bolts of ear training relate musically and how the principles relate to guitar (as well as other instruments).

The
preliminary courses will also help guitar players better comprehend rhythm duration and key signatures.
___________________________

(1). Part one, of lesson four Ear Training introduces the "Major" triad chord. This chord is created by stacking two kinds of interval. The root note moves up a "Major 3rd" and then from there up a "Minor 3rd." This creates a "Major Triad."

(2). Part two, adds practice of the "Minor" triad chord. The minor chord is created by moving off of the root note up a "Minor 3rd" and then from there up a "Major 3rd." This creates a "Minor Triad."

(3). Part three, shifts chord quality to the last diatonic chord type which is the "Diminished" chord. This chord is created by stacking two "Minor 3rd," intervals.

(4). Part four, introduces a symetrical chord called the "Augmented" triad. When working within a symetrical chord or scale format any note can function as the root note. The augmented chord is constructed by stacking "Major 3rd," intervals.

(5). Audio Track Training Exercises: Use the MP3 audio tracks (contained within the lesson download), to study the sound of each triad type. 


The triads from the table provided on page 5 of your PDF handout are performed upon the guitar and on the digital piano. Sing and match pitch to each interval as they are performed on the audio tracks.
