“Learning to read music”–software recommendation

by

I have not yet used this software–but have ordered it and will report back.  It seems to be a step up from the “true beginner” software, Music Ace, that I reviewed in a previous post.  Stay tuned–but if you already use this software and want to comment–please do so!  (There’s a free trial version by the way)

Less expensive and with very good reviews is another product:

Sometimes the terms “ear training” and “sight singing” (learning how to read music) are used interchangeably.  Both of these software programs deal with both, training the ear to hear musically AND helping you to learn to read rhythms and notation accurately.

Music 101–the FUN way!

I still can’t believe how much fun the computer program Music Ace is for someone like me, who has been reading music since I was very young.  Want to get started on the basics (and more) for learning how to read music?  Want to do a little composing?  Want to have fun the whole time?  Get Music Ace.  There are several different versions check them all out to see what’s best for you.   Let me know what you think!  (Note–this will not be challenging enough for people who already know how to read music.  But you may find, as I do, that you enjoy using the program with someone else who’s learning to read music!)
