Six Note Melody Dictations D, F, G, A, B, and D(h)

This dictation is very similar to the last one, but we’ll swap in and F for the E; that gives us D, F, G, A, B and D(h).

Remember, scaffolding is available if you need help.

Don’t forget to do Musical Gym. It will help you internalize the ear training as well as increase your picking and fretboard skills.
