      It threw me off when you asked to identify this note. Is it A or b? And the first note was an A. The second note was a major third which would make it a c sharp so It took me a minute to realize you're referring to. Is it number one or number two? Not so much. Is this note a or b. Because the letter b note was a c sharp

      Absolute/Perfect pitch is defined as the ability to identify a note without any reference, either by recreating it, or if they are trained in music theory, name it.
      This test was a great example of interval recognition and musical memory, and I scored full on the test, (part time musician my entire life), though I do not have absolute pitch.
      As an example, if you ask me to sing the Imperial March from Starwars, I will sing you the notes 100% correct as they are, in relation to each other, but if you compare my notes with the original John Williams composition, I will most likely not have nailed the key, which someone with absolute pitch definitely would do.

    I've always been able to tell when a song on the radio is played at a different speed than the recorded version since the pitch seems off. And playing by ear/figuring out chord voicings has always come super easily.

  • @outrid3r
    @outrid3r Год назад +707

    To be clear as I'm reading a lot of misinformation in the comments...
    This video doesn't intend on guaranteeing you have perfect pitch, despite the title. It's great if you can get all of them, well done, impressive!
    However, I've been a musician for nothing short of 10 years now and, despite completely acing this video, I definitely do not have perfect pitch. I have extremely good relative pitch, which I have once mistaken for perfect pitch, but the two are quite different.
    Charles Cornell explained perfect pitch, well, perfectly. He said (paraphrased) "a person with perfect pitch recognises pitch like we recognise color. Asking someone with perfect pitch 'what note is this?' is like asking non-colorblind people 'what color is this?'."
    They're on a completely different level, and while you can learn exceptional relative pitch (or true pitch), perfect pitch just doesn't work in the same way, they're two completely different processes.
    Charlie Puth, for example, can literally recognise any 5 notes played on a piano no matter how random and far apart those notes are and even recognised that a coffee mug, when hit with a spoon, would ring at somewhere between C and C#, or both, on one of those talk shows.

    • @39wdsss
      @39wdsss Год назад +56

      I have to disagree with you slightly. The color analogy is a bad one, because unlike color, music theory is not something that is automatically taught to most from infancy. People in the music world who talk about perfect pitch happened to have discovered their talent, likely at a young age, and were supported in the study of music. But I would bet that there are heaps of people who posses the biological components of perfect pitch, but aren’t able to express it or hone it because they simply aren’t involved in traditional musical training.
      Charlie Puth, for example, was classically trained on piano from the age of 4. Someone with even “better pitch” than him raised in a 3rd world country without the same resources would likely not be able to use that natural ability to distinguish notes in a meaningful way.

      well I mean perfect pitch basically means you‘re pretty much able to hear and recognize frequencies… a lot of seasoned musicians come close to reliably recognizing tones without any reference (on their main instrument for example) just out of sheer repetition and experience but never to the degree like people with perfect pitch can recognize the pitch of sounds in everyday life… it’s also the reason why Charlie puth‘s intonation while singing is so incredible I believe, even though he might not be the greatest singer in other respects but he simply can’t help but be in tune because deviations would be instantly apparent to his ear and also kind of irritate him… he has mentioned in interviews that understandably his perfect pitch can be quite uncomfortable sometimes… constantly thinking about the pitch of sounds around you, noticing slight dissonances…

    • @bendixtrinity
      @bendixtrinity Год назад +8

      i think there's a time limit on learning or discovering perfect pitch.
      when a child is trained at a young age and exposed to a wide range of pitch and frequencies repeatedly,
      it gets easier for the brain to distinguish tones or even permanently associate what you hear into musical notes
      compare to a child who isnt trained or doesnt hear a wide variety of tones.
      you need to train it as early as possible and if you miss that time frame, it will be gone forever.

    I was tested for PP by my organ teacher when I was 11. She tested me on notes and chords, including chords I hadn’t learnt yet at the time. I had that ability to identify each note in the chords she played which told me what chord it was. I was also playing music off the radio for quite some time before I was tested. This is how it was revealed I have PP. I learned later that it runs in both sides of my family (PP usually does run in families). All of my siblings have it and two of my grandparents also had it. Another giveaway that someone has PP is they can sing in tune without the need for musical backup to keep them in tune, they can play a song that they hear on the radio almost identically, they can tell you what key it’s in after listening to a few bars and identify key changes. People with RP take a bit longer or even struggle to identify notes and chords and keys without music in front of them, the key a piece is written in when they listen to it and key changes. They may also require backup if they’re singing. These are the differences between RP and PP.

    • @overthrownOT
      @overthrownOT Год назад +14

      @Kimberley Wood I also have PP and can clarify that that is correct. I am the only person in my family with PP, and I can sing any part in a choir piece without backup, by ear. I can sing any note in tune. I can tune instruments, so often orchestra members will ask me to tune their instruments. I can also recreate songs like you said with the radio, though I am not the best pianist in the world. I have also noticed that learning piano and other musical instruments are easier with PP. Thank you for this wonderful description of PP.

    Inner pitch is very interesting and I think even among those who securely have “perfect” pitch they relate to it in individual ways, eg depending on what sort of performer/musician they are.
    As for me, I don’t have perfect pitch, but I have a very high level of musical training and to a great extent am able to audiate scores at sight, and listen to music and fully reproduce it on the piano at once. But because I don’t have “perfect” pitch I’m also able to transpose whatever I hear to any key simply by imagining that I heard it in that key.
    But I guess there’s a lot of pitch memory there because I immediately recognised the pitch of this video’s intro. And consequently the rest of the video.
    EDIT: I know this video is actually bullshit but it made me stop and reflect.

    If you can think of a note based on it's frequency then compared it to what you hear. You may be able to identify approximately what is the frequency of the note. I remember 20Hz 40Hz 80Hz 220Hz 440Hz ~1000Hz 2000Hz etc. I'm also able to sweep the frequencies up or down a little. Memorize letters with pitch (which I didn't do) to relate the two. Or imagine the keyboard with the frequencies sweeping across it. It becomes easier as you play with oscillator and seeing what's the frequency. That's how I think.

    Best notes to learn by heart as a song are e,a,d,g,b,e
    Then you could tune your guitar way easier.
    But the most important and hard exercise is, even you sing perfectly the notes, to tune each string exactly on the good frequency.
    The difficulty is there is infinite different frequencies that lure cause it sounds like good but they are not.
    For example the a string must be a 440hz sound note. But if it tuned at 450, your brain could consider it is tuned ok.
    The real exercise is to hear that kind of differences, then you know how much you have to train your ear.
    Instead of using electronic tuners, i recommand to simply use some guitar tuner player on youtube. They play each note for a long time each.
    Take your guitar and try to make the note sound equal, then you will probably witness how it can be sharp as hell to get the real frequency.
    With training and time, you may be able to tune your guitar without any help of any kind, not even the string to the other trick.

      I can say for sure with violin, viola, cello, and string bass it’s easy to tune it that way. Because when you sustain a note along with a perfectly in tune reference note and the note ur playing is either sharp or flat only a little, with intervals it’s different, there’ll be this wave/vibration/“other sound” that vibrates louder and faster the, “more slightly” out of tune you are, and the more in tune you are, the less present the wave is. Idk if that can apply to guitar since you can’t really “sustain” a note for at least 2-3 seconds since you pluck a string and all that’s there is the resonance.

    Pitch is a frequency of sound, you could call it in Hertz rate.
    Attaching a note letter to that sound is a matter of musical application to pitch.
    Hearing a pitch and making the identification immediately is what "perfect pitch" would be about.

    Guessing just a single note is the hardest one since you dont have a recent melodic context in your memory, I picked 7 instead of 3.
    Also running down the scale for the listen first example actually confuses than helps since it completely resets the melodic structure of the scale thats already memorized after the first upward run.
    For reference, Ive been playing electric guitar for 15 years and have transcribed many hard songs, but some of these are still challenging on a first try without any tools or ability to repeat.

    So this video displays good relative pitch based on a major scale. You need to throw in the minor and modal scales in order to accurately gauge someone’s relative pitch. The major scale is pretty simple compared to the others.
    I also don’t like the term “tone death” as it gets misused VERY often. I do, however, recognize that you probably also think the same way because when you put tone death on the screen, you put it with quotation marks around it.

  • @obi234

    When I first went into music school as a kid, we were tested for pitch, and the teacher said I probably had perfect pitch, deduced so by testing me with the piano and tuning forks; it's probably a standard test, she would have me vocalize the notes, she would have me play the notes she vocalized, etc.
    This was a free school program, and we came to these tryouts very late because my mother had work until late afternoon, and I really wanted to play guitar or a fiddle as second choice - but since we were so late, there was only room for accordion and cello (cello is technically a fiddle, but owning one would be way too expensive and my father was against the idea to begin with for some reason), so I enrolled for the accordion class after much persuasion from the teacher -- she was absolutely insistent, going so far as to offer buying an instrument with the school funds if we could not afford one. She claimed I was the only student with that degree of talent that applied that year from multiple schools. I can still remember how her face changed mid-way through the test, the twinkle in her eyes and her smile, contrasting the tired and sad face she wore when we first walked in.
    Accordion turned out to be ok, and within a year I started performing with it regularly, solo and group. But as I grew into my teens, performing with the accordion seemed so very uncool, and I would also begin getting terrible stage fright, especially when my school mates would attend any of my performances, so after 4 years I intentionally failed the yearly test and flunked a year of music school and stopped playing.
    Today I am in my 30s, and in the last couple of years, I started producing music, singing, playing keys and guitar, but strictly as just a hobby and perform only for close friends. I still deeply regret not keeping with it and performing from childhood though, and I still feel terrible disappointing my music teachers and accordion tutors.

    Hi there. I have perfect pitch, and so this was mostly just passing time at five in the morning for me, but this test only really tests your memory. You can’t just play notes in a major scale and once someone memorizes that bingo you have perfect pitch. It’s not like that. And also if you really do have it, you would not be taking a test to find out. You would’ve found out as a child when the radio was playing songs so increddibly off key that you have to ask for the radio to be turned off. It’s not something you can train like that. Relative pitch sure, but you either have perfect pitch or you don’t.

    “Perfect pitch is the ability to recognize and name a note without having other notes to reference from.”
    I can remember and recall notes and I can usually recognize intervals. I have a good ear and good pitch memory. But perfect pitch is something else entirely.
    Mozart had the ultimate form of perfect pitch. He could tell what note what being played and even after one hearing could replicate and even create variations on existing melodies.
    Relative pitch is being able to tell the difference between two notes, in other words the ability to tell that two notes are not the same (anything other than unison or octave). Most people have “relative pitch,” but musicians train it to a level others don’t. Perfect pitch is something that can be trained into but natural perfect pitch will almost always have the upper hand.
