"STRESS in AURAL TEST" - by: Jelia Megawati Heru (Staccato, March 2015)

"STRESS IN AURAL TEST"
by: Jelia Megawati Heru
Staccato, March 2015


Memiliki telinga yang musikal merupakan salah satu aset yang krusial dalam bermain musik. Ibarat seorang chef yang mengandalkan lidahnya dalam merasakan dan menghasilkan masakan yang lezat. Karena sejatinya musik dihasilkan bukan dari instrumen musik. Namun musik dihasilkan dari tubuh kita sendiri, bahkan sebelum musik itu dimainkan pada instrumen musik atau dinyanyikan. Kepekaan telinga dalam mendengar musik dapat berkembang seiring berjalannya waktu melalui latihan. Beberapa orang terlahir dengan telinga musikal hanya dengan “feel it.”

Namun tidak jarang beberapa orang mungkin tidak akan pernah menguasai hal ini. Terutama pada orang yang buta nada (tone deaf,) dimana telinga mereka mengalami kesulitan dalam mengenali nada. Mereka tidak mempunyai kepekaan dalam mengetahui tinggi rendah nada, apakah nada yang dihasilkan benar atau salah. Sehingga mereka akan selalu membuat banyak kesalahan dalam memainkan instrumen atau menyanyi. Oleh sebab itu, aural test ini menjadi momok bagi banyak orang, khususnya dalam konteks ujian. Apa itu aural test dan bagaimana cara mengatasi stress dalam aural test? Simak pertanyaan-pertanyaan umum seputar aural test!
