6ths are the killer with relative pitch. I find them quite easy on the way up though. Like you say, a drop from C-E is easy to mix up with Eb

I have relative pitch myself, I just cant read a lick of music to save my life. If someone told me to sing a B minor, I would be completely lost in the fact I have know idea what a B minor is until it is played.
There is a girl in our choir with perfect pitch. Its kind of mystifying watching her sing a song she's never sung before nearly perfect by just reading the music, with no accompianamet (sp?) at all. Plus she's really purty...

Well, does anyone have any music theory related questions? I don't have any classical-music-friends here to bullshit with...so it'd be nice to feel appreciated. Sob.
People in Buffalo seem to think that substance is a bore.
It's kind of entertaining to watch the local rock musicians play avant-garde, though.

I want to start writing music, (I haven't read all through this yet, but I will) are there any techniques one could use to help develop their ability to recognize pitch better?

Some people claim to be able to teach you "perfect pitch." All sorts of books and tapes you can buy. I don't really care if I have PP or not, so I can't speak from experience.
Developing your own innate Relative Pitch is probably little more realistic. Practice solfege (Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Ti). It's best to have someone around to play intervals on the piano or guitar (whatever) at first.
Here's a good start: Have your partner play some random triads...major, minor, diminished, and augmented. See if you can tell the difference between them. Then move on to intervals (Octaves, Fifths/Fourths, Thirds/Sixths, Seconds/Sevenths)
There's this cool exercise you can do where your partner plays a triad (maybe an inversion), then randomly tells you one of it's constituent pitches. Then it's up to you to figure out what the other two notes are. It's easy once you get the hang of it and it builds your confidence.

Hey, that's a really good idea. I suppose the idea would be to figure out the inversion then the other two notes from there... develops chord and interval recognition.
