The ancient and original skills of playing music by ear are as important as ever in the 21st Century. Play-by-Ear differs from other methods with a focus away from the individual onto facilitating others to participate. Play-by-Ear provides a common denominator to quickly engage with inclusive participation and minimal resources. Community group leaders, substitute teachers and therapists are often called upon to lead music on short notice. Participants can mix and range from total beginners at all ages to some accomplished in traditional methods. Such groups may have no scope for follow-up so require some instant gratification with whatever is available on the spot. The core Play-by-Ear method achieved an Australian Innovation Patent in 2016 and has since been extended to fulfill school and community curriculum levels. Techniques are demonstrated to cover the full AASL 21st Century skill domains, ranging from a single finger chord on a ukulele up through use of digital tools to produce a music video for a worldwide audience.

Each lesson is accompanied by questions that the student should be able to answer after watching the video.The three videos cover:Learning to read chord diagrams and play chordsLearning strum patternsLearning how to switch chords effectively
