Hi! My name is Árni Guðjónsson. I’m a musician from Iceland, now living in Barcelona. I’ve been performing and recording music since a young age. Over the years, I’ve studied both classical and jazz piano and earned a degree in music composition.

But the tool I rely on the most—something I use almost every single day as a musician—was never taught in any of the countless music classes I took: playing by ear.

I’ve always found that a bit strange.

That’s why I want to change it. I’m not saying there aren’t music teachers out there who teach this skill, but I don’t believe it’s part of standard music education. Sure, most music schools include ear training, but this goes beyond identifying intervals or chords. This is about learning to actually play the music you hear.

Over time, I’ve developed some practical techniques to help musicians learn songs by ear, and now I’d love to share them with you.
