Notes & Rhythm [iPad]

Now get two of the most celebrated music education apps in the app store- bundled together at 30% off the individual purchase prices.

Flashnote Derby is a fun way for kids to learn and practice identifying music notes by name. It has been featured by the Washington Post and Gramophone Magazine, who named it one of the "Top Music Apps" of the year.

Each race is a timed test in which the student identifies different notes in order to urge their horse and jockey on towards the finish line. Answering quickly and correctly will cause their horse to gain ground, while incorrect answers will cause it to fall behind. At the end of each race, students can review the notes they missed and see the correct answers.

The game is fully customizable to allow for any desired notes in the treble, bass, alto, or tenor clefs to be included. You can select ranges of notes, or several individual notes to focus on specific areas that need work. The amount of time the player is given for each flashcard can be increased or decreased depending upon their age and level of experience. As a bonus, over a dozen instructional video lessons are easily accessible from right inside the app! Even children with no prior music instruction can start using Flashnote Derby right away to begin learning about the music alphabet, the staff, and how to identify different notes.

“I have tried 5 different apps for learning to read music and this one blows away the competition. My children love to play this and I let them play it as a reward for practicing their piano each day. The level of customizability are superior to the other applications out there and the sound effects provide great positive reinforcement. My 5 year old son learned most all the notes in the treble clef in two days… Excellent app, I can't thank you enough.” - Samantha

Rhythm Swing helps kids learn about rhythm and how it is written with music notation. Students will love outwitting the nasty crocodile by tapping rhythms correctly. A variety of levels take students from simply keeping a steady beat up through all different types of notes and rests. The humorous gameplay will keep them motivated to master each new concept.

Each level of Rhythm Swing has a brief instructional video which explains the new rhythm concept. Students can view and listen to short musical phrases and hear exactly how they sound. In practice mode, you can attempt hundreds of rhythms until they are mastered. Helpful feedback will guide you in fixing any mistakes. When the student is ready, they can progress to the game, which requires precise accuracy.

"My students and I LOVED Rhythm Swing. It was a real eye opener as to which of my students could instinctively keep a steady beat."
- K. W., piano teacher
