We're excited to announce that our first Beta and Pilot program has been extremely well received in schools spanning from Burlington Edison to Shoreline districts, as well as with home users! We will soon begin our second Beta and Pilot Program session for students to learn to play at home.
Students will practice playing one of the instruments listed below while providing vital feedback on how best to enhance our video content and refine our feedback application.
Alto Saxophone, Clarinet, Flute, Percussion, Trombone, Trumpet, Cello, Upright Bass, Viola, Violin, Bass Guitar, Drum Kit, Guitar, or Piano.
It doesn’t matter if you have never played an instrument, play an instrument but want to learn another, or if you’re a master of every instrument in the entire world, we would like your input!
All that is required to participate is access to the instrument you want to learn, a computer with internet connection, and a microphone.
