When I was in college - and this was before the Beatles broke up, mind you, my
theory
teacher (who performed a lot of 20th century music and had us doing atonal
sight-singing
every day) brought into our advanced theory class for harmonic dictation some
songs from
Abbey Road, and for rhythmic dictation, the piano intro to "Martha My Dear"
from the White
Album.
