Ear Test


I have a exam tommorow.
" You will be asked to play back on your guitar an eight bar guiyar line using diatonic notes from any key. You will be given the tonic note and will hear the sequence twice. "
How can I use the tonic note they give to help me?

Re: Ear Test


Above all remember to begin and end on the same note, i.e. tonic.
From taking many music theory tests, I can say most important thing is ending on the same note which which you began.
