Ear Training with Spock - Major & Minor triads with Inversions.
This video contains two tests (15/16) of questions with triads being played with a piano sound. The tests are designed for BOTH beginners and advanced ears at the same time. The chords are played 3 times and then the answer is revealed. The answers are given verbally and shown in standard notation with captions.
Test #1 at 6:23 - Test #2 at 12:08
Beginning ear training students should listen for the difference between the major & minor triads and try to tell which note is the bass note. To make this first inversions test easier, the bass note is doubled down an octave (occasionally two). For the advanced students: the test begins with a C major scale and each triad shares a note in common or moves by step to the next triad, so you a required to name the chord (C major- root position, D minor in 2nd inversion, etc.).
