    It's all about the Tonic
    Jan 7 2026

    Learning music by ear is a learnable skill, although most musicians don't know where to start. Using the tonic as a point on an aural map to pinpoint all other notes against is arguably the most valuable ear training skill a musician can have. This lesson will teach you how to identify each of the 7 major scale degrees by ear and give you 3 exercises for continual practice and improvement.

    For more practice with scale degrees, check out my collection of 120 progressive ear training exercises.
