Excerpt from Intervals, Chords and Ear Training for Young Pianoforte Students
It is often noticeable how deficient musicians are in knowledge of their art, and how untrained their ears are in the power to follow intelligently harmonic progressions. Even an accurate knowledge of the more common intervals such as major and minor 'thirds, augmented fifths, diminished sevenths, e'tc., is by no means common. Nothing is more valuable to the musician, be he composer teacher, or executant, than some degree Of inner hearing, i.s., the power to feel accurately the correspondence between the note, the written symbol, and the outward effect - the sound; so that if one is asked to sing a minor third or a major seventh, it can be easily done; or so that the same intervals may be instantly recognized when played.
