Well, with your scores it sure is just a test of your memory! For
people with a severe form of amusia it is not, as their memory works
perfectly well but they don't hear differences in any of these tunes,
resulting in the average random 15/30 score. People with just a slight
form of amusia score somewhere upwards from 15/30. Probably the perfect
30/30 is hard enough for someone without amusia because of other factors
like, as you state, memory. The fact that you heard all the differences
in the 2nd part means that you're a happy camper and this forum is
truly your home ;-)

But did you read the article? What's your opinion about it?

cheers,
Nick.
