m2: jaws
M2:
m3:
M3:
P4: Here comes the bride
A4: Maria (west side story)
P5: Just about every country song ever
m6:
M6: NBC
m7:
M7:
P8: Somewhere over the rainbow
Intervals down... well.. i haven't really found any.
So what songs do you use to get the intervals in your ear? |
M2: Do Re Mi (from "Sound of Music", Doe, a dear, a female dear.....)
m3: The Impossible Dream.
m6: A Day in the life of a Fool (know also as Black Orpheus, and Mahan de Carnival... its a old jazz standard)
m7: Somewhere (West Side Story)
M7: Old Star Trek Theme
Check Jamie Abersold's site for some of this. He's got it all covered in his free downloadable jazz book.
