Learn and listen with training modes, and prepare for the quiz to test your knowledge. You can choose your difficulty to match where you're ready to jump in.
Pick from intervals and chords you're ready to hear and learn about. Big and small intervals, triads, 7th chords and beyond are all here to learn about and get quizzed on.
Impress your friends with interval and chord identification at parties! After submitting an answer, you can listen to the interval or chord again to help your ear get another chance to hear it.Â
Intervals and chords both have two quiz types!
--Text Select (above) plays a sound you identify
--Audio select (below) asks you to distinguish between multiple audio options
Hear and see how chords are spelled. Listen to all the notes together or one at a time to get the flavor.
The original version of this app was actually two apps (Aural Skills Trainer: Intervals and Aural Skills Trainer: Chords) released in 2014. Due to life, these were abandoned. But the dream lived on, and we're back with a completely revamped framework. Not only have the apps been rebuilt, but Intervals and Chords are now in one handy to use app: Aural Skills Trainer.
If you're doing music, things should be musical. That's why our next steps will be including context and examples to help identify intervals and chords and where you might hear them. Keep an eye out, coming soon!
