About MelodEar, across Jazz Harmony

Melodear is an melody learning interface allowing to visualize, hear and sing the melodic modes associated to the harmonic progression of a song, to flow limitlessly within and between the modes by learning to your ear all the melodic passages. You can make your own chords, scales and songs !

MelodEar is a 15 years passionate real-life teaching process decanted into a practical device by David Eskenazy, musician, singer, facilitator, creator of MelodEar.

‘I love when musicians sing with their instrument, and I love when singers obtain instrumental with their voice. So I dreamt of a device that could offer a comprehensive training for both. Here it is : let’ s dive into it , hope you have fun the idea !’ D.E

At latest singers have a serious voice-designed instrument to dive into the entanglements of jazz harmony.

Instrumentalists from another angle, will have the opportunity to muscle their inner hearing and connect their fingers straight to it: an infinite source of creation.

Both may consequently raise their artistic language to a fresh dimension and message unexpected results in their improvisations.

WORKFLOW AND OVERVIEW

MelodEar has a very easy work flow with Three windows :

. The Edit window, where you can edit chords, easily choose the melodic modes, build your song.

. The Library, where you can shop your songs, access pre-filled jazz standards, customize theme.

. The Session window, where the actual work is happening.

The Session window offers a unic visual medium to intuitively grasp all-in-one the melodic modes used in a chord progression, their internal intervals, the number of every note and the multiple connexions between them. ( cf screen shot n°1).

This incredible guidance allows the user to develop their improvised melodic discourse to any direction through the chord progression. Ultimately this visual frame is only the help to a higher purpose : the audiation, and sensorial memory of the colors of the notes, modes, intervals and most of all of the multiple melodic passages from 1 mode to the next.

The Session window also provides a chord player & keyboard, a vocal keyboard to play the notes of the mode, a pitch recoginition highlighting the notes you sing, a fine tuner to be able to adjust your pitch, a looper to work on a specific section of the song.

SEE IT, HEAR IT & SING IT

‘See it, hear it & sing it !’ is the key-stone(regle de trois) of this musical approach.

‘See it’ : for a clear understanding & a secured guidance.

‘Hear it’: for a deep, reliable set of skills in real-life improv situations.

‘Sing it’ : whether you sing magnificiently or barely in-tune, your voice, fed-back with the pitch recognition of Melodear is the best reality-check of what you actually hear. It will support grounding the ear work from abstract to pure physicality. Our tip to instrumentalists and singers : Sing along !
