An album you enter.
You knew music before you knew words.
Musicality opens the way a record does: you put it on, and it plays.
Four chapters, built like movements. A pulse becomes a tone, and the tone becomes music, in your first five minutes. No notation, no instrument, no experience needed.
Play what you hear.
Then the instrument is under your fingers. Musicality plays a note, and you play it back by ear, scored on pitch and timing, every beat. You answer by playing, never by naming.
You need no instrument. If you have a piano or a guitar, you can play your answers on it too

one ring per interval, filling only as your ear earns it

You’re not tone deaf.
You’re untrained.
Only about 1 in 65 people truly can’t hear pitch.
Measured, not guessed (Peretz & Vuvan, 2017).
The rest were simply never shown. Including, in all likelihood, you.
