HEY ED,
Nice to "see" you again. See, I learned to use the correct smiley now.... Happy to know that you are also using EarMaster. I can't wait to hear from you again soon. Have a good trip and happy holidays!!!

Jakobsen, I finally found it. Thank you very much. Happy holiday!!!

When I wanted to learn intervals myself, I wrote this online program:
pitchimprover.com
It will drill you with the most simple intervals at first and then add the trickier ones as you progress. It won't help you with the singing part though.

There is a lot of controversy if one can learn to recognise pitches as adult, but everybody agrees that intervals recognition can be learned, so no worries, just work on it.

I would suggest not bothering with trying to learn intervals. I started off this way and alot of colleges teach this way, but it definitely doesn't work in practical applications.

Before going to college for music and getting in to jazz I couldn't play by ear at all except to guess. But I have since learned very reliable relative pitch. I can easily hear a tune and play a random note at the piano and from that note identify what the key is and find the melody with little to no guessing. I'm also able to identify many chord progressions by ear and this skill is continually improving. So this can definitely be learned. You of course need a solid understanding of theory to build off of. Here is the method for getting it right:

Also, singing is a must. You don't have to be good... just be in tune. There are additional materials for this on the publishers website:

By the way, I posted this same response (slightly altered) in another thread in case anyone notices
