With proper application, the student will be able to: recognize notes without depending on an instrument; identify which notes other musicians are playing; instantly know what key a chord progression is in; sing or transcribe the notes in a given melody. This method differs ... in that it develops the ability to identify and name all twelve pitches within a key center. ...
