It
has opened up new vistas for me and plugged many
of the "holes" or gaps in my ear before
the course. (D.R., Saratoga, New York)
Dear
David-Lucas: Thank you very much for creating an
exciting and innovative course for improving one's
ability to follow music with your ears. I am not
a professional but do play the piano for enjoyment.
Ear training was always a mystery to me but now
I'm able to follow the flow of music thanks to your
course. (J.M., Norfolk, Virginia)
Dear
Mr. Burge: Yesterday I finished the Relative
Pitch Ear Training SuperCourse, and from
the very depth of my heart: Thank you for such an
excellent course! (P.J., Paarp, Sweden)
We
are using the Relative
Pitch Ear Training SuperCourse in our
theory class with excellent results. (J.A., music
teacher, French Lick, Indiana)
I
am a trained vocalist and also play piano and flute.
I took private lessons until two years ago and never
learned anything that explicitly related to Relative
Pitch or ear training. I learned solfège,
nevertheless, it was not enough for me, which is
why I purchased your courses. They are wonderful,
and I can tell that my ear is becoming more attuned
to subtleties. I have been working with the Relative
Pitch Ear Training SuperCourse for about
3 weeks . . . a tremendous feeling of
accomplishment. Thank you for allowing us to benefit
from your knowledge. Sincerely, C.M. (Carlisle Pennsylvania)
Just
a short note to let you know that I graduated your
Relative Pitch Ear Training
SuperCourse and it has really strengthened
all my abilities. My main musical focus is composition,
and I found that the course almost immediately helped
me hear the structure of a piece and how different
parts fit together. Practicing your techniques has
had such a wonderful effect on all my musical experiences.

Dear
Mr. Burge: Two days ago I completed your Relative
Pitch Ear Training SuperCourse and I'm
thanking God for you. I am now enjoying the capacity
to sing harmonies in my church choir, something
I wouldn't do before. I have been upgrading my guitar
skills, using the chords in their various inversions
that I have learned in the course. I am also developing
the ability to accompany any song in any key (for
my work with children, etc.), transferring music
from my head to my hands, and memorizing popular
songs. I have analyzed the progressions using the
knowledge I have gained in the course. Thanks again!

Dear
Mr. Burge: I have recently finished your Relative
Pitch Ear Training SuperCourse and want
to let you know how much it has helped me. I have
been playing the piano since I was tall enough to
reach the keys, but until now, never realized how
much I didn't know.
The ear is like the brain
in many ways . . . until we learn how
to access it, we can't use it. My ear has indeed
opened up and I love it. Thank you.
I have also purchased the
Perfect Pitch Ear Training
SuperCourse. Thank you again for proving that
an old dog can learn new tricks. Best regards, W.C.

Mr.
Burge: I just graduated from the Relative
Pitch Ear Training SuperCourse on Feb.
9. It is a well thought out course. I hope there
will be more stuff for graduates. (J.W.)
Where
high school and college programs fail, you succeed!
(S.H., Rocky Hill, New Jersey)
Dear
Mr. Burge: I have now graduated the Relative
Pitch Ear Training SuperCourse. The course
has helped me very much with my music studies and
the other students are amazed by the speed I can
recognize intervals and chords. I also started the
Perfect Pitch Ear Training
SuperCourse and I have noticed a dramatic improvement
in my listening skills. Before, I could hear just
one sound but now I can hear the overtones too.
Because of this and many other things, I know that
I'm doing the exercises right. I would like to thank
you for the courses and if you do have any more
materials, please let me know. (K.A., guitar, Sibbo,
Finland)
Dear
Mr. Burge: I completed your Relative
Pitch Ear Training SuperCourse today.
The time I spent was well worth it. The course filled
in a lot of theoretical gaps in my knowledge of
music as well as sharpened my ear and I would recommend
it to any serious musician. The teaching method
makes it enjoyable. I will now be focusing more
on the Perfect Pitch Ear
Training SuperCourse, which I had ordered first.
If you have any other courses available, please
let me know. (S.A., piano, Montreal, Québec)
Yes,
I've graduated the Relative
Pitch Ear Training SuperCourse Wednesday
February 6. Your lessons have become a continuous medium
in my studies for a B.A. in music at U.C. Davis,
California. I'd love to know any future projects
in your music education program. Thank you and warmest
regards, J.H. (W. Sacramento, California)
Dear
David-Lucas: Thank you for opening my mind into
the world of music. Today I graduated the Relative
Pitch Ear Training SuperCourse! (K.S.,
sax, Olsztyn, Poland)
Dear
Mr. Burge: I completed the Relative
Pitch Ear Training SuperCourse today.
I must congratulate you on an excellent course with
strong fundamentals in music theory. I have now
started the Perfect Pitch
Ear Training SuperCourse. (S.P., MD, guitar,
Brooklyn, New York)
This
is an appreciation note to David Lucas Burge: The
Perfect Pitch and Relative Pitch training
system has been very, very beneficial to me, so
much so that I have abandoned all the other training
tools that I have been using and am satisfied by
his alone. I have found it very well put together,
enjoyable to follow and learn and just what I needed.
My playing skills have really improved and continue
to improve. This is a training tool that every singer
and musician should use to develop themselves and
the only complete tool that I have ever used. I
think I have spent my money very well, and thanks!
(K.B. piano,
Ipswich, England)
Dear
Mr. Burge: I found your Relative
Pitch Ear Training SuperCourse invaluable.
It has helped me progress much further towards becoming
a professional musician than I otherwise might have.
Any further courses that you design would be eagerly
awaited by myself. Yours sincerely, M.O. (piano,
London, England)
Dear
Mr. Burge: I almost wrote 'Dear David' because after
listening to your voice for hours during my Relative
Pitch Ear Training SuperCourse,
I feel as though I know you. I love this program.
I am learning so much and it is so exciting. I have
played flute and piccolo for 40 years and piano
for 11 years. I am not a professional musician,
but perform occasionally with friends in church,
fundraisers, and other community events. The music
theory that I have taken left my knowledge jumbled
and full of gaps. Your program is filling in those
gaps and things are becoming so clear. My singing
instructor has been very impressed with my new understanding
of harmonies and my ability to sing intervals for
him. I am jazzed!! Thank you so much for doing this
wonderful home study course ... this makes it possible
for me to work it into my busy schedule and progress
at my own speed. I just love it! Sincerely, P.L.B.
