Sorry, I love that joke. In the spirit of our recent blog posts recommending things to do in SmartMusic between your winter concert and what’s coming next, I want to put in a good word for SmartMusic’s Baroque titles. These pieces look and sound great and represent an excellent resource for sight-reading some pretty challenging stuff. They are also a wonderful way to introduce ornamentation to your older students.

To access them, choose Solos from the Find Music page, then specify your instrument. As you browse the results, look for “MakeMusic” as the publisher, and note the right hand column for “On Screen,” indicating which pieces include on-screen music notation:

Select a title with a check in the “On Screen” column and you and your students can be “going for Baroque” immediately.

Happy New Year from the entire SmartMusic support team!
