About Aural Awakening

This book builds upon the foundations of the Hearing Eye and Seeing Ear and offers a broad approach to aural training and practical musicianship. Aural Awakening includes more advanced exercises in rhythm, melodic work and harmony, and includes valuable approaches to such topics as sight singing, melodic dictation, the perception of form, timbre and texture, and the identification of style and idiom. Appropriately presented, this book could be used either for secondary or tertiary students.
