Identify melodies by ear. This exercise trains your recognition of melodic scale degrees against a drone through playing a tone, providing the correct answer, and then repeating the tone so that you can create an association between the feeling of that scale degree and the number representing it. The key is changed every few minutes.

Tips:
- Keep your focus on the "feeling state" of each tone, not the specific pitch. The feeling of each scale degree is always the same regardless of octave or key. This is what we're learning to recognize here.
- If you're just starting out, you don't need to try and figure out which degree you're hearing. Just listen and relax.
- When the tone is repeated, focus on making a connection between the scale degree number and the feeling you experience.
