Everyone,

Thanks for all the advice. I've already started applying some advice. Ingrid has great advice about using the Drones. I'm going to pick up the White CD! Or maybe wait until I see Ingrid's website changes. !^)

It was mentioned to associate certain intervals to specific songs. A while back, I ran across a whole list of songs and related intervals. Do you think I can find it now? If anyone knows where I can find another list it would be greatly appreciated, or help me fill in the blanks.

Example
minor 2nd =
Major 2nd = Happy Birthday
minor 3rd =
Major 3rd =
Perfect 4th = Here comes the bride
Tritone =
Perfect 5th =
minor 6th = The NBC Jingle
Major 6th =
minor 7th =
Major 7th =
Octave = Somewhere over the rainbow

Ingrid, I made the assumption these intervals are moving up the scale. They are much more difficult moving down. I better slow down and eat this elephant one bit at a time or I may choke.

It looks like I am approaching this lesson horizontally. When it may make more sense to approach it vertically, by hearing how the notes lay on each other instead of "next to" each other.
