I cannot tell the difference between a 4th and 5th both harmonically and melodically. I get them wrong maybe 80% of the time.
I'll call a diminished or augmented a M7.
When spanning an octave it is worse.
The only thing that sticks is the m3 where I hear Beethoven's 2nd movement of the 7th symphony.
I hear "Over the Rainbow" in 7ths.
Sitting at the piano is like trying to tickle myself.
Do I just need the rote practice over and over and over until I puke or what am I missing? I am very frustrated at this point.
