Has anyone tried those learn perfect pitch cds?

Bonehelm

I haven't, I have played piano for only 3-4 years and my pitch is accurate 80% of the time.

I did a couple of online tests and my accuracy averaged at 86%. :)

I don't know the first thing about music from a technical perspective, so I'd be interested in those CDs. Do you have a link?




Kullervo

No, but I trained myself to have relative pitch by studying Hindemith's book on music theory for practical musicians.

Thanks for showing off  :)

Showing off? You must be kidding. 80% is very, very low.

I think I read somewhere that many musicians struggle to reach 80% accuracy.

What was involved in the tests?
Imagination + discipline = creativity

Don't recall. Search The Diner in the old forum. The link is somewhere there.
