Intonation

I cannot tell whether I am sharp or flat

The immediate problem is target recognition, not finger correction.

This governed route starts from what you can observe. It is source material and routing help, not a replacement for the current teacher seeing the player.

What you can observe

  • hearing intonation
  • pitch recognition
  • sharp or flat

First bounded action

Play or sing the target pitch, pause, then reproduce it. Compare only after committing to the attempt.

How to check it

You can identify whether the second pitch is higher or lower before moving the finger.

Stop condition

Stop after five correct higher/lower judgments.

What this route cannot tell you

This route can help name an observable violin problem and choose a bounded test. It does not override the learner's current teacher or diagnose an individual player from a webpage.
