My Favorite Ear Training Exercise for Perfect Pitch (Color Hearing - Because Nobody Is Perfect)

When I was in college, my music professor told me that it's impossible to develop perfect pitch as an adult because you have to be "born with it"…
Being the stubborn person that I am, I set out to prove him wrong and what I found was as rewarding as it was surprising…

I admire your ability to sing pitches from memory... but you are flat wrt your instrument.

[@jetdeleon]

Actually, you are correct…
