Research On Absolute Pitch

…these results indicate that, in principle, AP can be learned – or one should rather say, developed or activated.

In 2000, Ernst Terhardt published research on absolute pitch that proves absolute pitch can be learned.

…the ability to recognize absolute pitch was found in a number of birds, and a frog. This indicates that AP is an elementary, rather than sophisticated, feature of the auditory system of vertebrates.

To become a “genuine” AP possessor you must early in life become aware that you already are an AP possessor, and this kind of awareness, of course, may emerge from the experience that pitches can be identified, though at first imperfectly, to a certain higher-than-chance extent.

    some( verifiable) feedback from people attesting to the value of your course would be nice.

    I’ve been a professional bass player for nearly twenty years, and have dabbled in music for about 35 so I’m all ears – if you’ll pardon the pun.

    cheers

    Stew.

    The researcher says that to be a genuine ap possesor you must realize this early in life. What does that mean if you’re not early in life? Can it be learned but just not as well?

  4. The good news is that his research leads him to believe that absolute pitch can be learned.

    “Yet these results indicate that, in principle, AP can be learned – or one should rather say, developed or activated”

    And the research is still young. One of my goals is to get more data. But I don’t need anyone to tell me that it can be learned because I did it :)
