3. Note position on sheet music.

4. Note position on piano keyboard.

5. Key signatures.

6. Accidentals (sharps, flats, naturals).

8. Chords.

This easy to use yet addictively challenging app will help you rapidly learn or improve your sight reading skills.

You have complete control to quickly and easily select the range of notes you want to focus on and how much help the app gives you as you learn.

Its easy to create and tailor a training session that suits you.

Three skill levels help you progress quickly without overwhelming you with too much stuff.

By analysing your “speed” and “accuracy” the app calculates your “results” for each training session. Spurred on by the challenge to beat your highest score you’ll always be pushing yourself to a higher level.

As an added incentive, your skills development journey is accompanied by a picturesque, slowly scrolling background scene that evokes a sense of peaceful wellbeing as you progress towards musical greatness :-)
