Teacher: Joe Koster, music teacher, conductor of the Deccan the Voices • Course - Ear Training I The objective of the course is to strengthen relative pitch, so that students can interpret melodies they hear in terms of notes on their instrument, and vice versa, to sight-read and prehear music even without an instrument. These skills are vital in all styles of music – to compose, improvise and play music with others. This course will give students a firm grounding in the basics of ear training. We will study and practice major and minor scale solfege and conducting patterns. Prerequisites: basic knowledge of reading/writing music (note names, accidentals, key and time signatures), major & minor scales. Start: Sunday 18. Jan. 2015 – 2pm to 3.45 @ Alliance Française Eligibility: Open to all musicians (this includes singers!) who satisfy the above prerequisites. This course is designed to complement the Improvisation and Harmony courses offered by the same teacher. (The course can also be taken on its own.) Structure: We offer 4 sessions of 1 hr 45 mins each - on weekends. Course fee: Rs. 3000 for 7 hours (HWMF-members: Rs. 2800).
