Most songs use a small set of harmonic patterns. Train your ear to recognise them and you can play almost anything by ear.
From the I-IV-V-I behind countless pop songs to the ii-V-I of jazz. This test maps your harmonic pattern recognition.
The I-IV-V-I, I-V-vi-IV, and ii-V-I cover the majority of Western popular and jazz music. The test starts here.
Perfect, plagal, and deceptive cadences each have a distinct sound. Recognising them improves your harmonic intuition.
The test plays progressions in various keys so you train the harmonic function, not just a memorised sound.

Over time, your ear starts to anticipate where progressions are going. That is the goal.
Each dimension of pitch perception reinforces the others.
