In this video, jimmy will be showing you how to play songs by ear.
Playing songs by ear just means playing any song without sheet music or guitar tabs. No previous background in music is really needed to understand and even though I have a piano here it’s just an example so you can see which notes are going up, and down.
Message from Jimmy:
“Apparently there’s some kind of misconception from some saying guessing and checking on actual songs is better. Training interval identification in a coordinated way lets you get this ability infinitely faster. Associating intervals will be slower than guess and check only in the beginning. If you want long term improvement ear training is the way to go. Picking out a song by ear by guessing repeatedly is not the same thing as playing a melody out with little or no mistakes in real-time.”
“Finally, whistling or singing to replicate a note correctly is not perfect pitch.”

In this video, Andrew answers a question about how to understand and practice relative pitch as well as the differences between Perfect Pitch and Relative Pitch. He will further discusses the way musicians can develop a keen sense of relative pitch through a series of association ear training exercises.
Below is question from Martin:
Q: What is relative pitch – is it the same, or different than perfect pitch. Also, which one is best to learn as a guitarist and can you give any tips for practicing ear training techniques.
The following is answer by Andrew:
Perfect Pitch is the ability to recognize the actual tonal name of a note from only hearing the given note being played; i.e., Knowing that a note just performed was actually an “Eb.”
Relative Pitch is the ability to recognize the intervalic distance between two notes; i.e., Hearing an “F” note then hearing an “Ab” after one another, and knowing that the interval between them is that of a Minor 3rd.
