An untrained musician will play what he knows but a trained musician can play what everybody knows. I personally think that this is what makes "Essential Ear Training for the Contemporary Musician" by Steve Prosser well worth checking out." -MusesMuse.com Berklee Ear Training DepartmentClick here for more info on Berklee's Ear Training Dept.Sample Lessons on Berklee SharesSamples from this title are available on Berkleeshares.com, where you can download free music lessons and share them with your friends.
