Re: test for musical skills

Nadine,

I've always been partial to the Seashore measures myself.  They're normed for children and adults, easy to administer, and test the major components of musical ability.

Hello! I was wondering what kind of assessments people like/prefer for testing musical skills in children and adults (with and without musical training).

Any suggestions and comments are highly appreciated.

Thanks

Nadine
