@beat_less_tuning: Percussionists tune too. If you play timpani You already know • You hear intervals • You match pitch • You adjust in real time That is ear training The same skill applies here What to listen for • The wobble = beats • Faster beats = out of tune • No beats = locked Why this matters • Timpani must match the ensemble • Pitch relationships drive the sound • You can’t rely on a screen How this helps • Train your ear to hear intervals • Find the lock faster • Adjust with confidence This is not just for wind players This is for musicians Train your ears, not your eyes #Tuning #percussion #drums #band #banddirector
