Musilingual

Hear any melody. Know every note.

A sight-singing and ear-training program at conservatorium level. Hear music and read it, note by note.

Early access is free.

Für Elise on @musilingual: the cursor reads the melody and every note is sung by its solfège name. Muted here; sound on TikTok.

The program teaches you to do this yourself: see the notes, hear them, sing them. Then any melody.

The one skill every musician needs.

  • Hear any music and know what it says.

    A tune on the radio, a line in a choir: you hear the notes and you can name them. Then you can play them, write them down, or sing along in harmony.

  • Read music and hear it before you play.

    Open a score and the melody sounds in your head, before your voice or your hands touch it. New pieces stop being puzzles.

  • Sing and play in tune, in time.

    You know where the next note is before it comes, so you land on it. That confidence is the whole difference on stage.

Every spot on the list is free. Take yours.

A program, not a pile of drills.

Random intervals with a score teach you to guess. A program builds the skill in order, each step resting on the last, the way the world’s best conservatoriums train musicians.

How every lesson goes

  • Hear it, sing it back. A short phrase plays. You sing it back by its note names, or play it on your instrument, and you hear straight away whether you landed.
  • See it, sing it at first sight. The same phrases engraved, as in the videos. Reading grows out of hearing, never the other way round.
  • Find the key yourself. Nobody plays you the home note. You learn to hear the root note and the scale of any music by yourself, and from then on every note has a place.

Two names for every note.

You learn both, and each does one job. Solfège tells you where a note sits in its key. Letter names tell you which note it is on your instrument.

Two bars of Ode to Joy in bass clef, the solfège names mi fa sol, sol fa mi re under the notes, and the blue cursor on the first note.
Solfège Ode to Joy. The key is D, and do is D: home. Every other note is named by its distance from home, so the same tune sings the same names in any key.
Two bars of Amazing Grace in treble clef, the letter names As, C As C Bes As Es under the notes, and the red cursor on the first note.
Letter names Amazing Grace in A♭. A♭ is sung As, B♭ is Bes, F♯ would be Fis: one syllable a note, so every note can be sung.

Solfège comes first in the program, because it is what your ear hears: pull towards home. Letter names come once that is solid, and they turn what you hear into what you play.

Melodies you know, sung note by note.

Questions

Is it free?

Yes. Everyone who joins now gets free early access. Your number is your place on the list, counted in the order people joined, and the bar shows how many of the open spots are taken.

When does it open?

We are building it now. Leave your email and you get your number straight away. We email you the day early access opens, and nothing in between.

Do I need to read music already?

No. The program starts by ear, with songs you already know, and teaches reading as you go. If you already read, the early lessons go quickly and your number holds your free spot either way.

Which solfège: fixed do or movable do?

Movable do, with do-based minor. Do is always the home note of the key you are in, major or minor, so what you sing is what your ear feels: the pull towards home. In a minor key you sing do re me fa sol le te. Fixed do names the keys on a piano instead, and la-based minor moves home away from do; neither trains the ear the way this does.

Which letter names?

C D E F G A B. A sharp adds -is: Fis is F♯. A flat adds -es: Bes is B♭, and E♭ and A♭ are Es and As. One syllable a note, so every note can be sung, which is the whole point. B is B, never H.
