Summary of this method
Training the Ear, Volume 2 is aimed at musicians who have already worked on the fundamentals and want to go further in developing their ear applied to harmony. According to Armen Donelian's introduction, this volume targets the specific auditory needs of the student operating at an intermediate level in harmony, with an approach oriented towards more advanced development.
The goal is twofold: to strengthen an aural foundation (what you hear and identify instantly) and a theoretical foundation (what you understand and name) to handle more complex levels of music "easily and confidently." This logic is particularly valuable for the improviser, who must make quick decisions, hear tensions/resolutions, and transform listening into coherent musical language.
By working with this method, you consolidate essential reflexes: listening precisely, recognizing more elaborate harmonic functions, and integrating this information into your playing. A relevant resource for anyone wishing to raise their level of reading, analysis, and improvisation, while contributing to a more demanding musical pedagogy.
