Sebastian is an ear training software that enhances music listening skills by gradually increasing problem difficulty and offering diversified types of problems to identify musical sounds.
If you're a music student, you understand how difficult ear training can be. It's an essential skill for musical development, but it's often one that students struggle with. One-on-one instruction with a tutor at the piano is the most effective learning method, but finding time for consistent lessons can be challenging.
That's where Sebastian comes in. Sebastian is an ear training software that provides the same gradual increase in difficulty and problem variety as an in-person tutor. With Sebastian, you can save time with human teachers for more engaging activities like learning music and physical technique.
Sebastian's interface is designed for a seamless learning experience with minimal distraction. The software helps you achieve a learning "flow" through one problem at a time, progressively increasing difficulty as you improve. Sebastian even sneaks in review of problems you may have missed before.
One of the best things about Sebastian is that you can use a MIDI keyboard if you have one, but even if you don't, the on-screen keyboard helps you map sound to something tangible. Unlike other software programs, Sebastian doesn't force you to perform "drills" with distracting accuracy measurements. Instead, Sebastian offers a challenging yet fun way to learn the art of ear training.
Sebastian was created by Dr. Jonathan Crosmer, a software engineer, composer, and violist who understands the value of ear training. He worked with students in aural skills classes while studying at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. If you're looking for an engaging way to improve your ear training skills, give Sebastian a try.
