What is Perfect Pitch?
Simply put, Perfect Pitch is your natural, but usually undeveloped ability to:
- Name exact notes and chords -- BY EAR
- Sing exact notes -- from memory
- Identify keys of songs just by listening
It's like this:
WITHOUT Perfect Pitch:
You do not know what tones you hear -- it's like hearing in "black and white":
WITH Perfect Pitch:
You know the EXACT TONES you hear -- it's like hearing in color:

Note: You do not have to associate visual colors to tones in order to learn Perfect Pitch. Instead, you will actually learn to hear the PITCH color of each tone.
Does "pitch color" sound like a strange concept to you?
Think of it this way:
Your eye sees VISUAL colors; likewise, your ear can learn to hear PITCH colors.
Your eye can recognize different colors of LIGHT (light waves) -- right? Likewise, your ear has a natural (but usually undeveloped) ability to recognize different colors of SOUND (pitches).
Once you tune in to these PITCH COLORS, you'll naturally learn to name any tone or chord -- BY EAR -- just like you can name colors by eye.
If all this still sounds a bit abstract, don't worry. It's so simple a child can do it. (If you have musical kids, you'll want them to learn Perfect Pitch as young as possible!)
Yet regardless of your age, instrument, or currently ability level, you'll hear it for YOURSELF . . . starting with your very first CD. We guarantee it.
