Aural Training in Practice, ABRSM Grades 1-3, with 2 CDs: New edition

Excellent book and arrived immediately

ottimo

This book ain't cheap. It's thin, has very few pages and cost $20.00. But if you need it for your piano study this will do. The book did took about two weeks to arrive so plan your purchase accordingly.

Never underestimate the value of the Aural part of the ABRSM exams! It is a wonder that so many music teachers sideline it when valuable points can be picked up. My daughter passed grade 1 & 2 piano with reasonable marks in the aural. In grade 3 she used this book, gained full marks in the aural tests which gave her the extra marks she needed to go from pass to distinction. The book and cd use the language of the examiner and give many examples to practice for each part of the aural test. They then tell you the correct answer (which is just as well as i would have no clue if they were right or wrong!). This book covers grades 1-3 so is a good investment. It is also relevant to the aural tests for all intrument and voice exams not just piano. You can get even more practice if you buy the 'specimen aural tests' book too.

It's a very good resource, easy to understand. However, if you were to prepare for an exam, you would need way more exercises than the ones provided. It would be great if there were an online database associated with the book, with music examples, etc.

Es ideal para aprender y prepararte para las pruebas de la Royal de musica en piano. Gracias por todo. Saludos
