In this lesson, Lissa expands the call-and-response pitch recognition exercise to include two, three, and four pitches in a row, working within a restricted set of parameters: the notes between the A above middle C and the E above that (open A and open E on the fiddle). She starts with two-note phrases, then moves on to three-note and four-note phrases.
