Recently I was asked to contribute a few thoughts on playing by ear along with my favorite ear-training exercise in a post on the New Zealand-based blog Piano Picnic.
Other contributors include Jennifer Foxx, Tim Topham, Nicola Canton, Christopher Sutton, Sara Campbell, and more.

I love this! One of my goals this year is improving my ear playing, and so many of the suggestions in here are practical and easy to do. Thanks for sharing!
Great to hear, Rachel! It’s nice sometimes to hear from a variety of people at once on a specific topic. Like you I have also been working to play by ear better myself – good luck!
