Pitch
Pitch is how high or low musical notes are. That means your sense of pitch is fundamental to almost everything you do in music.
Intervals
Intervals are the building blocks of melody and harmony in music. Learning to recognise intervals builds a strong foundation, your sense of “relative pitch”.
Melodies
A series of notes one after the other creates a melody. Melodies are what we think of as the “tune” but the same skills also apply to basslines, solos and accompaniment parts.
Chords
Whenever three or more notes are heard together, it forms a chord. Different types of chord create different musical moods and emotions.
Chord Progressions
A series of chords is called a progression. Chord progressions create the harmonic movement that creates a story in music.
