Synopsis

Improve Your Aural!by Paul Harris and John Lenehan is designed to take the fear out of aural. Through fun listening activities, boxes to fill in, and practice exercises, this workbook with CD focuses on all the elements of the aural test. And because all aspects of musical training are of course connected, a range of interconnected activities are included to help develop the ear, including singing, clapping, playing your instrument, writing music down, improvising, and composing.

This new edition of this popular series supports new ABRSM syllabus requirements from 2010, ensuring success in the aural test of graded exams.

Review:

For anyone taking exams (of which aural tests are an integral part) these books are an invaluable resource as the CD enables the student to 'self-administer' the exercises and listening activities - an added advantage is that students can practise the test in the order in which they come in the examination and become familiar with the routines involved - The layout of the books is admirable (answers are at the back) and the spoken instructions are clear and friendly. All the workbooks and CDs offer a useful and enjoyable experience quite apart from their value as practice material. European String Teachers Association Magazine
