Pitch internalization strategies of professional musicians.

Music educators agree that the internalization of pitch from music notation is essential for music literacy, but college music theory teachers often find that students' aural comprehension lags behind their visual comprehension of musical notation. Teachers may find pitch skills difficult to teach because their own cognition has become intuitive through musical experience. Research in aural skills pedagogy has produced neither comprehensive curricular requirements nor an ideal sequence of experiences for pitch internalization. Furthermore, teachers with absolute pitch (AP) cannot know from personal experience how to teach necessary relative pitch (RP) skills.
