Software Reviews

Finding a software title that takes the pain and suffering out of learning a vital skill is always refreshing. For many people ear training classes are one of these painful yet necessary parts of learning to be a good musician. The EarMaster Pro version 5 software manages to provide an excellent series of ear training exercises while avoiding the common pitfalls of many music education software titles . While it is doubtful that any company could make aural training exercises fun, EarMaster comes quite close and still manages to be rich in features and variety of instruction.

Unlike online piano tutoring software the eMedia Piano and Keyboard Method does an excellent job teaching beginners how to play the piano as well as including vital theory and aural training concepts in the process.
