Tenuto vs Sing Scales

Tenuto is a collection of 24 highly-customizable exercises designed to enhance your musicality. From recognizing chords on a keyboard to identifying intervals by ear, it has an exercise for you. Tenuto also includes six musical calculators for accidentals, intervals, scales, chords, analysis symbols, and twelve-tone matrices. A short description of the exercises and calculators follows. –––––– • Note Identification • Key Signature Identification • Interval Identification • Scale Identification • Chord Identification Tap the button corresponding to the written staff line. For example: if shown a C, E, and G with a sharp; tap the "Augmented Triad" button. –––––– • Note Construction • Key Signature Construction • Interval Construction • Scale Construction • Chord Construction Construct the specified label by moving notes and/or adding accidentals. For example: if shown a C and an "Augmented 4th" label, move the second note to F and add a sharp. –––––– • Keyboard Reverse Identification Tap the piano key corresponding to the written note on the staff. While similar to Note Identification, this exercise uses a piano keyboard rather than note name buttons. • Keyboard Note Identification • Keyboard Interval Identification • Keyboard Scale Identification • Keyboard Chord Identification Tap the button corresponding to the highlighted piano key(s). If the C and G keys are highlighted, tap the "P5" (Perfect 5th) button. –––––– • Fretboard Note Identification • Fretboard Interval Identification • Fretboard Scale Identification • Fretboard Chord Identification Tap the button corresponding to the marked fretboard position(s). If the 2nd fret of the D string is marked, tap the "E" button. –––––– • Keyboard Ear Training • Note Ear Training Listen to the played reference and question notes. Select the piano key or note button corresponding to the question note. • Interval Ear Training • Scale Ear Training • Chord Ear Training Tap the button corresponding to the played notes. If E and F are played, tap the "Minor 2nd" button. –––––– • Accidental Calculator Display the accidental for a note and key. • Interval Calculator Display the interval for a note, type, and key. • Chord Calculator Display the scale for a tonic and scale type. • Chord Calculator Display the chord for a note, type, and key. • Analysis Calculator Display the chord for a symbol and key. • Matrix Calculator Display the twelve-tone matrix for a specified tone row.

Practice the most fundamental yet creatively challenging art of singing musical scales. Voice training fine tunes the larynx and its vocal cords towards producing and sustaining consistent sound frequencies. Extensive scale library offers: — 100+ common scales — tempo setting — configurable scale stepping pattern BUILT FOR NON-MUSICIANS* The Sing Scales app is purposefully built with non-musicians in mind. The user interface is designed to present musical scales in an interactive manner. The user gradually acquires understanding through experimentation. The app doesn’t expect the user to have pre-existing knowledge of music theory. Singing scales is just one piano key tap away — make the lowest naturally comfortable “Do” sound, tap on the highlighted piano key and start singing the scale right away. It doesn’t have to be more complicated than that. * Musicians are welcome too, scales are for everyone! DOMAIN OF APPLICATION Singing musical scales is a foundational skill required to build one’s vocal and hearing faculties. The skill is immensely beneficial for a number of activities: – mastering the art of musical improvisation – ear training – self-development work on building confident and flexible voice – therapeutical applications that use voice work as the medium Ear training is a natural outcome of singing scales. Once one acquires the feeling of producing a certain pitch, a link to the hearing faculty is being established. WHY SING SCALES? What’s so unique about signing musical scales? Why not just learn to sing songs? It’s much easier to produce relative pitches than to be exact with one’s voice modulation. Learning to sing songs or whistling melodies is an exercise in relative perception. One can produce interesting results but foundational skill building would be missed. The true command of one’s voice and its connectedness to musical hearing begins from the ability to answer questions like: “What note am I voicing right now?” “How can I make a correct Fa pitch?” “What is the interval between the two notes I am hearing?” It’s a challenge worth pursuing! TECHNIQUE OVERVIEW The Sing Scales app is a flexible voice measurement tool. The user can practice singing solfège syllables of Do-Re-Mi-Fa-Sol-La-Ti or any sequence of syllables of choice. For example, singing a scale in La-La-La requires a superb tuning of one’s vocal cords. RICH LIBRARY OF MUSICAL SCALES The app comes with a significant library of more than 100 known scales.
