Sing That Note!


A must-have app to help you hear more in your music.

Have you ever wondered what notes are being sung, what chords are backing up the singer, or how high that crazy trumpet line leaped up? If so, Sing That Note! can help you learn to hear these musical elements. All these listening skills are based on the recognition of one all-important note: the tonic, the syllable "do", the key note or scale degree one (it goes by many names). Simply put, if your piece is in the key of D major or D minor, then that note is D. Here is a phrase of music followed by its tonic.
With Sing That Note! you can test yourself to see if you have recognized the tonic note, or "do", in music played by live musicians. Just listen to a musical phrase and sing the note you believe to be tonic. Sing That Note! analyzes your singing and tells you if you have hit the correct note.

Sing That Note! is ideal practice for music students in aural skills (ear training) classes: Based on the latest Music Theory Pedagogy, this app tests the recognition of tonic as a "contextual listening" task—the recognition of musical elements in the context of real music played by live musicians.

Sing That Note! A must-have app for anyone who wants to hear more in the music they love!
