Harmonic Vision Music Ace 2 (educator)

This product is for educators only.
Music Ace 2, the second title in the highly-acclaimed Music Ace series from Harmonic Vision, is designed for beginning and intermediate students. Featuring 2,000 musical examples and covering treble, alto and bass clefs, Music Ace 2 picks up where Music Ace leaves off to introduce standard notation, rhythm, melody, harmony, intervals and much more. The Associated Press called it "an ideal supplement to one-on-one music instruction." The National Association of Parenting Publications awarded the software a gold seal and Children's Software Revue gave it a perfect 5-star rating.

Maestro Max and his choir of Singing Notes return for an encore performance with a variety of new instruments to provide students with a continuing introduction to music fundamentals and theory. Music Ace 2 continues the same fun and engaging format of 24 comprehensive lessons, challenging games and a creative composition tool.

LESSONS
24 engaging, self-paced lessons that accelerate development of fundamental music skills and music theory.

GAMES
