I have heard that you can develop relative pitch, but you are born with perfect pitch if you are going to have it. How true is this, and how DO you develop it?

It's easier for some than most.
I don't have it and I made a really good living as a musician for years.
Bought my ranch for retirement.
But I know people that developed it. (I never tried. Close enough was good fer me)
Its just sheer repetition. Most of them referred to the pitch as having a colour like you would see.
A pure colour is a pure pitch.
Bright red is more pure than magenta... (I always imagined this as a G 8^)
They always said it's not a "real colour... " Whatever that means... I don't have perfect pitch.
There are tapes that train this too. I've seen them at Guitar Center.
Hope this helps.

you won't be in a position to examine genuine 'suitable pitch' (additionally extensive-unfold as 'absolute pitch') - that one attempt to be born with. yet you may improve an quite good relative pitch which provide you just about suitable pitch. the only distinction between 'absolute pitch' and an quite good 'relative pitch' is that folk with AP can sing you any be conscious out of skinny air without being given a reference tone first, and that they could additionally make it easier to realize what the notes they hear are (eg. 'that music is in G substantial') with no need help from an tool. those with 'relative pitch', on the different hand, choose a reference tone - be it a tone this is been under pressure into their recommendations because of the fact of repetition (like the 'stay overall performance A' of orchestras), or a be conscious that somebody performs on the piano and names it. yet as quickly as they're given the reference tone, they could particularly a lot tell something of the notes that persist with without a lot situation. To improve a good relative pitch, you need to prepare with an tool generally. Play the be conscious and attempt to experience it with your voice. Then remember what the be conscious is. Ear-preparation workouts like gaining awareness of to hearken to distinctive harmonic/melodic periods will additionally help. the substantial to staying in music is being waiting to hearken to the be conscious on your head until eventually now you sing it. It would not must be 'absolute pitch' that does it - as long as you have a good 'relative pitch' and are waiting to narrate each and every be conscious to the subsequent, you would be wonderful. each and every of the main suitable!

You can learn absolute pitch. I've been teaching it to kids and adults for a few years now. I created a blog where I teach absolute pitch and I have another website all about absolute pitch ear training.

Please stop by and ask your questions and I'll answer them as soon as I can. :)
But keep in mind, even though absolute pitch is a more refined sense of hearing, it's not required to make beautiful music. It's not a magic bullet that takes away your need to practice.
Best of luck to you!
