 These lesson notes correspond to the Guitar Pro Tab, PDF and Audio files for Lesson 14 - Introducing the VII Degree of the Major Scale from Sight Singing Major Scales - Part One of Perfect Your Pitch - Ear Training And Sight Reading For Guitar Players.

By this point, you should have the Major Triad and the Sixth and Second Degrees of the major scale pretty much under control, so now it's time to add the Seventh Degree - the B natural note, which is the Major Seventh of C.

The Major Seventh is not a particularly difficult note to learn to sing - as it's a semitone below the tonic, it naturally resolves to the C and you should be very familiar with the sound. However, I've provided a lot of practice exercises in the Tab Files because with each note that is added, the possible number of intervals increases exponentially and so more work is necessary.

Guitar Ear Training Programs And Links

The accompanying Guitar Tab Files for this Ear Training Course are available in Guitar Pro 6 format from the Advanced Guitar Player Downloads section.

Although they often don't provide progressive Aural Skills development for beginners, ear training software programs can be very useful. I personally use EarMaster Pro - Click here to download a Trial Version of EarMaster Essential, Pro or School.
