Music @ Site Students who can’t
sight-read or do aural tests……familiar story? MAS clarinettist Alistair Logan has made further developments to his
interactive software to help with topics that students find hard to practise
at home. Music@ site, whose appearance as a sight-reading aid made a small
ripple in these pages over a year ago, is now re-launched with a SPLASH! With the modest logo ‘beginner to
pro……….all you need to know’, the software covers interactively aural, theory and sight-reading for all
single line instruments at all levels, from
preliminary grades to diploma.
The new package includes ·
detective games for sharps/flats/rhythms ·
stories for learning notes ·
a talking dictionary that makes up crosswords. ·
