Follow-Along Scores

Learning to compose, further understand and perform pre-composed music begins with a study of the actual music notes, the scores (also called charts) that contain the written record of the music itself. In the world of Musical Kaleidoscope, we are developing what we call follow-along scores, videos that feature the score pages along with a performance of the music itself, so that the student, or the enthusiast, needs not try to keep up with the music from one source, while trying to keep up with a printed copy of the score at the same time.
