Musical Dynamics Training Software for Digital Piano

Description

Simple python program that helps pianists practice and visualize their dynamic expression in real time.

Primary Use

While there are many programs that help learn to play piano or improve sight-reading, none have focused on practicing and fine-tuning dynamic expression. This program provides a very simple user-interface to visualize your dynmics:

• Displays a colored bar extending above the piano key that denotes the velocity of each keypress
• Lists the level at which you are playing (pp, p, mp, etc.)
• Future feature to indicate how closely aligned simultaneous notes are played
