BUZZ

What I like most about this DVD is that ear training is so much better to watch and try out than it is to just read about. The fact that this is a filmed demonstration, is awesome.

What I like about Roberta Radley as a teacher is that she is very smart and very focused. Her enthusiasm for this discipline and its application is completely contagious. I found it really inspiring that she originally struggled with ear training when she first started out and considers herself to still be a student of it as well."

"In unsolicited testimony I have received feedback from students who show marked improvement and exhibit a new "confidence" in their skills. They claim that working with the DVD "at their own pace" really helped them to make greater strides in their development.

Thanks for making your excellent teaching available to us!"

-Mitch Haupers, Assocate Professor, Ear Training Dept., Berklee College of Music
