MusicNotes SightReading Master for Android
In the game's main screen you can select Treble or Bass clefs with different levels. There are 68 levels in total. In each level, different pieces of music notes come along with the three educational mode options; Learn Mode, Arcade Mode and Hear Mode. The music notes flows on the screen with the relevant piano sounds. Players have to hit the correct music note on the piano keys below the staff ledger. If it is the right music note, the note turns into green. In the Learn mode (sight reading training), if player hits the wrong music note or doesn't hit any piano keys, the correct note appears on the pop up screen. In the Arcade Mode (improve sight reading), the speed of the game increases in time; as a music note in 4 seconds, in 2 seconds and finally in 1 second! In the Hear Mode (musical ear training), the player just hears the piano sound of the note, but not sees it on the screen.
After you complete the 68 levels, you will have learned all the music notes of Treble and Bass clefs, while you improve your sight reading and musical ear!
Moreover you can go settings from the main menu and select one of the music notations below:
- Southern and Eastern Europeans (do re mi)
- English (C D E)
- North European (C D E ... H)
- Bizantine (or pa vu)
- Indian (sa re ga).
But it only lets me play once, then the app won't open. To play again, I must uninstall, then reinstall; losing all levels in the process. Sucks. Fix & I'll fix the score. Or at least give a refund. Update: developers stated they would check into problem. Still deactivates itself after initial download, but now at least, my levels are saved. Just have to continuously reinstall. Smh. Improving score to 3 star. Deserves 5. Developers, please fix. You have an award winning app here. I want to play it!!
These exercises are "food for the brain" in memorizing all music staff notes for sight reading AND ear pitch training as well. Impressive teaching tool Indeed.

But there are some issues. The treble clef is misplaced on the staff, and it is never certain as to when it is too late to answer. It's hard for children to know how long they have to answer.
