💕🎶Would you love to go beyond sheet music and truly play from the heart?

We were joined by Sarah Jeffery, host of “Team Recorder”, the top YouTube channel for recorder players. Sarah creates wonderful tutorial videos and although her target viewer is the adult recorder player, so much of what she teaches is rich in musicality and relevant across any instrument.

We talk about the big difference it makes to play music by heart rather than from sheet music, and Sarah gives some wonderful advice for helping you memorize and perform music.

Have you wondered how some guitarists seem to just know what notes to play?🎸

They can pick out a tune by ear, play along with a song they’ve only just heard and improvise killer solos without any need for sheet music, tab, or fretboard patterns.

They have a well-trained musical ear.

By doing simple ear training exercises on guitar you can hone your own ears in the same way. In this article we’ll look at one particular area of guitar ear training: interval recognition.
