A music practice feedback system, includes a processor; and a memory storing instructions that cause the processor to perform, forecasting an ability to retain playing skills of a sheet music by a user via machine learning and changing a display of the sheet music based on the forecasted ability.

A system for controlling a display of digital sheet music includes a musical instrument having a pedal, a computer including a display for displaying sheet music, and a page turning device fitted upon the pedal and communicatively coupled with the computer. The device has circuitry, which includes one or more sensors, a control mechanism, a power source, and a transmitter. Upon the user activating the page turning device, the control circuitry generates a sensor signal and outputs a page turning command to the computer.

Embodiments of systems and methods pertain to providing a session of music learning to a user, comprising: setting a sound capturing configuration relating to at least one microphone of a computerized device; providing the user with musical notations to be executed through the user for generating user-generated sound; capturing, through the at least one microphone, sound which includes user-generated sound produced by the user to produce user-generated sound data; processing the user-generated sound data; and determining, based on the processing of the user-generated sound data, whether a sound capturing configuration is to be adapted or not.

A teaching system for increasing understanding of music through expansion of a compositional technique known as contrary motion and methods for creating and utilizing the same contrary motion and/or understanding. Contrary motion can comprise two or more lines of music that proceed in opposite directions from each other. As a first line of music ascends in pitch, for example, a second line of music descends in pitch. In selected embodiments, the teaching system can employ one or more senses, such as an auditory sense, a visual sense, a tactile sense and a kinesthetic sense, of a listener to enable the listener to further understand and enjoy the music. Accordingly, the teaching system advantageously can enhance understanding of music with a focus on contrary motion by incorporating the use of the other senses of the listener in addition to use of the auditory sense.

A music visitor center comprising an interactive string instrument exhibition comprising at least one resonance chamber and at least one string that may be mounted to the at least one resonance chamber and excited to vibrate and generate an amplified musical sound, an interactive percussion instrument exhibition comprising at least one drum shell and at least one drumhead that may be mounted to the at least one drum shell and excited to vibrate and generate an amplified percussive sound, an interactive wind instrument exhibition comprising at least one air tube and at least one mouthpiece having a reed that may be mounted to the at least one air tube and excited to vibrate and generate an amplified wind instrument sound, and a path along which the exhibitions are located that constrains a visitor moving along the path to encounter in order, the string, percussion and wind instrument exhibitions.

To assist a human player in performing a plurality of foot operators (pedal keys) operable with a human player's foot, a foot operator image indicative of the foot operators is displayed on a display screen. Model performance data including at least information indicative of a rhythm and a pitch of a foot performance part to be performed by use of the foot operators is acquired, and a particular foot operator corresponding to the pitch of the foot performance part included in the acquired model performance data is visually designated. At the same time, based on rhythm information for the foot performance part, a rhythm of a sound corresponding to the particular foot operator is presented. The presentation of the rhythm is performed by presenting a sound generation timing and a time length of the sound, and a suitable marker indicative of a performance progression may be additionally displayed.

A musical system may include one or more storage media, at least one processor, one or more sensors corresponding to keys of a musical instrument, and a display. The storage media may be configured to store a set of instructions for modifying a music score for a user based on a performance level of the user. The at least one processor may be configured to communicate with the one or more storage media. When executing the set of instructions, the processor is directed to determine a user performance level of a user and provide a modified music score for the user based on the user performance level. The sensors may be configured to sense a motion of at least one key of the keys and generate a key signal accordingly. The display may be configured to display the modified music score.

Embodiments pertain to a system configured to provide a music learning session to a user. The system comprises a memory for storing data and executable instructions; and a processor that is configured to execute the executable instructions to result in performing the following steps: presenting the user with a representation of a musical piece to be played by the user with a music instrument; receiving an audio signal relating to an instrument output provided by the music instrument played by the user; and determining a level of correspondence between the received audio signal and the representation of the musical piece presented to the user. The steps may further comprises identifying an audio signal portion for which a determined level of correspondence does not meet a correspondence criterion; and determining an error characteristic for the identified audio signal portion.

Presented herein are systems and methods for presenting content of an electronic book to provide real-time feedback to a user performing a musical piece, and to select content for subsequent presentation to the user based at least in part on an automated assessment of user performance of the musical piece.

A musical score processing method that is realized by a computer includes receiving a control data related to displaying of a musical piece from a music processor that executes a process related to the musical piece and that is realized by a music processing program, using inter-application communication, based on a musical score processing program, and executing a display control process by displaying a musical score of the musical piece on a display device and controlling the displaying in accordance with the control data that has been received, based on the musical score processing program. The music processing program is separate from the musical score processing program.
