It's about hearing and recognizing the slots. It may take some time but it's attainable to develop a musical instinct built on the number system. Relentless effort in this area will create a smart singer that has more confidence when leading worship or as a bgv. Music theory takes a repetition. We are committed to help it stick by helping you see it from different angles.

Connection to the ear. We don't teach isolated fragments of music theory or random ear training exercises. Improvise for Real is an integrated music practice that combines creativity, ear training and harmony knowledge every step of the way. For each new harmonic situation that you learn, you'll spend lots of time exploring the sounds yourself improvising over our backing tracks, and you'll even sing the sounds with your voice as part of truly mastering them. The result is a deep personal relationship with harmony that allows you to understand music by ear and to play the sounds you imagine.
