Wouldnt it be
great if you could
figure out the
chords, the melody
and the rhythm of
a song on your
own if you were
without sheet
music and you
needed it right
away?
Of course that
would be
awesome!
Here are 12 ways to develop this wonderful skill. Read, listen and learn:
1. Quietness
First of all go to a quiet place so you can concentrate more easily. Lock the
door of your room, turn off the TV, Internet and other distractions. Try not to
be interrupted.
you hear a repeating G note on the bass guitar your guitar chord is
probably a G major or G minor.

Its so often that ear training is overlooked or ignored completely. Youve done a
great job of bringing one of the most vital skills for any musician to light.
Hi Kyle D,
Its great and I love it that there are so many tab websites out there,
but we must not forget that music is about using our ears.

Hi Klaus,
Good en helpfull post! So far I find transcribing a melody in the right time the most
difficult part (i.e. the duration of a note).
But its a real boost to find things out this way :)
Hi Albert,
My advice is keep trying. To hear and feel the exact duration of a note and the right
rhythm you need to train your musical ear. Every single time you transcribe a song
youll learn something you didnt knew before.
Good luck !

Hey Klaus, thanks for the great article! I was wondering if you could suggest some
simple songs to figure out by ear? Please suggest semiobscure songs, as I already
have a huge knowledge of songs (all learned from tabs or my guitar teacher sadly)
