Drone Notes


Each of these tracks is 5 minutes long. Use them to work on intonation! Higher pitches can be easier to hear during playing. 

Practice tips:
•Practice intonation SLOWLY, so that you have time to hear and correct each pitch
•When you adjust your intonation, use small and slow motions to adjust
•Do not use vibrato
•The drone note should be the 1st or 5th scale degree of the key you are playing in (i.e. For a passage in D major, use either a D or A drone)
