Re: hearing intervals prior to playing

and THAT is why I try to play as much music as possible! I find that I miss a lot less notes when I am really hearing everything. From Bach to Bitsch, to Bird heads to clarinet etudes, to memorizing all of the music I am playing. Being in tune has been an issue with me lately. I listen back to my early recordings and cringe when I hear how 'poor' my intonation is/was. One of my
big ear-opening moments happened when I ordered the relative pitch course- yes, the same happy-looking guy that sells the Perfect pitch method! In fact, I'm going to order it again on disc.
