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

Thirteen intervals.
Twenty-six tracks.

An interval is the distance between two notes.
The difference between a happy chord and a sad one is one semitone.

Thirteen of them, from the prime to the octave. Each gets a Training that drills the distance and a Tune that makes it stick: a melody that never leaps further than the interval it teaches

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

Play along with the record.

Every track on both albums plays like this in the app.

the Major Sixth’s tune, at its own tempo

The introduction is free.
Three minutes of training a day is free:
every day, not a trial.

The albums.

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.
