Lemoine 99 Tests D'Écoute Vol.2 - Ledout

Summary of this method

Designed to support music students in making solid, practical progress, this method places the emphasis on regular practice and independence. The objective is clear: to make frequent training easier through short exercises, while developing precise listening skills that are essential both in musicianship classes and instrumental practice.
The content alternates between melodic and rhythmic work, with particular emphasis on active listening. Students are encouraged to connect their theoretical knowledge (landmarks, durations, motif organization) with what they actually hear, in order to improve their accuracy, speed of comprehension, and confidence when completing dictation exercises.
The tests are structured around several types of exercises: melodic fragments to complete, rhythmic fragments to complete, melodic dictation fragments, rhythmic dictation fragments, as well as dictation exercises combining melody and rhythm in 1 and 2 parts. This variety makes it possible to vary the situations, refine perception, and strengthen the ability to memorize and then reproduce musical elements progressively.
Finally, the use of varied instrumental timbres (piano, woodwind instruments, strings, guitar, etc.) helps students become familiar with different tone colors and specific attacks—an asset for developing more refined and musical listening skills. Answer keys, available for each volume, provide immediate feedback on the work completed and make it possible to identify precisely which areas need further reinforcement.
