Hey Tara,
could you share the iPhone app you refer to? - I think it is for 
learning by ear.  I'm always interested in any helpful, accessible 
iPhone apps.
Thanks

I don't have perfect pitch and therefore I have to have a lot of notes spelled out for me on some of the more difficult pieces. There is also an app for the iPhone works with your training. If you're interested in the app let me know. Good luck!
