Dylan Beato- You have to see this to believe it. This isn’t someone hearing a note played and identifying it.
He hears multi-note dissonant chords and identifies all the notes.

Bleh, my daughter can do math, is great in school, and
loves aikido. We don’t direct her learning, we allow her
to develop what she wants.
Fascinating! View some other videos of Rick Beato explaining and demonstrating how the early learning window enabled Dylan to master Nuryl.
(I think tone-deaf Bob Dylan would have benefited from such training.)
Moxie Man : Ledgend is, that Bob Dylan helped Train Harbor Seals to Sing at Sea World. He did a great job,in Fact They’re still Singing entire Dylan Albums today !!!
Redrum ……redrum ………
The kid’s fine with the music chords and all, but in my limited exposure to the “finer arts”, it kinda seems like unintentional training for a serial killer to me.
Hopefully I’m wrong.
My Father was a gifted Musician , and now My Daughter a 14 Year old is a Violinist – also gifted and First String in a large Orchestra. (We’re not Asian).
I watch them play, and I’m still amazed everytime. It’s like Magic comes out of their hands, sure it’s practie- but it’s well beyond that.
He’s gonna make one heck of a conductor some day
That’s crazy–I couldn’t identify the same note twice.

What’s music got to do with trains?
Phenomenal. I hope he also develops the discipline to play and perform.
Music is just another language. This boy must have had a love affair with the sounds and learned to identify them early. It doesn’t mean a thing, but when I was young I used to spell each word in my head before saying it. I could still have a conversation with you while spelling each word out loud — but I’m probably not as quick as I used to be. Then for fun, I would successively drop the first letter and put it on the end of the previous “word” to see what other “words” I could make up. I’m not good at math.
Great, put his ass to work identifying the notes in that chord at the beginning of ‘a hard days night’ by the Beatles.
God has given this boy a wonderful gift. I hope he makes the best of in his life. He has the making of a fabulous career in music.
We all have gifts from God and some never use them. As Rush Limbaugh has said, “talent on loan from God”. Dylan has it!
Wow, the varied gifts our Creator has given each one of us. Unfortunately, at 71, I’m still trying to figure out mine! The kid is near unbelievable. Hope he uses his gifts for the honor and glory of God.
Besides these videos can’t see a bit of usefulness. When I read music I hit the key without bothering to decipher it’s name, position was enough.
Absolutely incredible. Most musicians can pick out common chords. I’ll sometimes hear a song on the radio and without getting my guitar can say, “Oh, that’s a G major chord to E minor” etc.
But to name the notes in those dissident poly chords… Holy Mother of Pearl. And in the midst of it to retain perfect pitch to sing randomly called out notes. Just amazing.
Incidentally, the famous Hard Day’s Night intro chord which sounds like a Gsus is actually a combination of the three Beatles guitars doing three very different things.

Actually the World’s Greatest Ear for Musical Notes is a 37-year-old Sentinelese woman living on one of the Andaman islands in the Indian Ocean. However, since neither she or her tribe has ever had any contact with modern civilization, much less heard any instrument capable of producing complex music, her talent will remain forever unknown, even by her.
Hey, it could be true. You never know.
I bet it would piss off his dad if he decided to take up the drums…
