J. S. Bach Chorales (medium level)
Traditional German melodies (upper voice), Harmonized by The great J. S. Bach (3 lower voices).
How it works:
​
1. Just listen effortlessly to the NAMES of the notes .Listen to the same Earsy Tunes daily. Use HEADPHONES or good quality speakers.
2. Do NOT practice/memorize.
3. When (after at least 3 days) the melody (including note names) is clear in your memory and "wants to come out", only then sing/play along. Whenever you're not sure, stop singing/playing and just listen.
4. Continue until you sing/play it well.
In 3 days - 5 weeks (depending on the complexity of the melody and your level) you will know the melodies by heart. The more melodies you know the better your musical ear will get. 10 min listening a day can easily teach you 4 hours of melody in a year - without any effort on your behalf.
If you don't know the Do Re Mi.. Earsy will teach you that.
Here is the book from which these chorales were taken. After you listened a few times to the Earsy Tune, It's great to also follow along sight reading (upper part with stick upwards). The numbers of Chorales in the book and on this page correlate.
