Hi guys. I've been out of Aural training for over a year now, and with an audition coming up, I need to do something about it!
I will be asked to indentify intervals within an octave, identify primary triads with inversions (and which inversion it is), sing back a short melody played to me, and clap a few difficult rhythms.
What concerns me is at the moment I do not have access to a piano. I have been given the set of rhythms to practise, but they could ask any of about 30 of them! This part I can get under control, as well as the melody singing, but the intervals will be more difficult. The chords and inversions are hard - all I really have is Cakewalk. Can someone suggest an excercise I could do? Last time around, out of all of this, I only got 1 inversion wrong, but that's when I was having 3 aural training sessions a week!
Thanks for your help guys!

I assume from the .au that you are in Australia. For those in the USA I've suggested before that most churches would be willing to make a piano (or organ) available to a music student in need, a small donation or offer to play would likely be appreciated. (My wife has made just such arrangements with several churches (including those where we were not members) back when we were poor and had no piano.)
Perhaps this would work where you are as well.
