Re: Identifying unusual musical chords
Re: Identifying unusual musical chords I think just being a well-experienced musician provides the greatest amount of skill for this before looking at a score. Jazz performers tend to improvise the most out of any types of musicians I know.I'm interested though -- perfect pitch is when you hear a note and can identify it without another pitch, obviously meaning relative pitch. But what happens when you don't hear a note in a chord? I'm not sure that wouldn't necessarily be perfect pitch. If they personally cannot pick out certain notes, I don't think that's diminishing they're ability to identify them...Luke URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=257909#p257909 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Identifying unusual musical chords Hello all,So I've been fascinated and intrigued by people who can listen to a recording of a song and play it on the piano very accurately. I was wondering if there are techniques used to identify any unusual or unfamiliar chords and progressions.For this reason, I have wanted to learn how to better perfect my pitch perception skills so I can listen to a chord and pic out all of the notes that I can hear from lowest to highest.I also noticed that people like that are also great improvisers. Maybe they make up the chords half of the time if they're uncertain of the true chords?Also, I do have hearing loss, and I wear hearing aids. I don't know if the quality of the sound, or how I perceive it might differ to some extent.This is why I am a big music Braille proponent. I keep telling people that there will be a point where no matter how hard you try, you will not be able to pick out all of the chords to play this piece. So as a test, I pla yed some very unusual and polytonal (multiple layers)chords. My friend was able to pick out almost all of them. In one instance, they only heard the last note of the chord, and couldn't tell that the chord was augmented. Now, that might sound like a bummer to that person, because they are known for being such a perfectionist, making sure that everything comes out smoothly. So when I listen to people playing on the piano, I can immediately tell when someone is stumbling, even just a tiny bit, regardless of whether or not I heard the piece before.Anyhow, I was wondering if there is a way that someone could build a computer programme that can test how perfect your pitch really is. It would test your memory as well. For example, it would play three bass notes on the left hand, and five notes of a chord on the right hand. Then you have five seconds to identify the notes from lowest to highest. You only get to hear the chord once. Of course, these parameters can be changed.so what are your thoughts on this?
