About

Abbado Choir Trainer

Features
Read full description

The Abbado App is a personal trainer for choir singers — helping each member learn their part in new material faster. It shows you the score, plays back the notes, and can even listen to your singing to check whether you're hitting the right pitch. Abbado works with MusicXML, a common, widely supported format. You can try it with the built-in example scores, or import your own MusicXML files — either from your device or straight from the web. Behind the name: Antonio Guarnieri's conducting of Debussy's Nocturnes inspired the young Claudio Abbado to become a conductor. We hope the Abbado app inspires choir singers the same way — to strive for perfection, for musical quality, and for the wonderful feeling of mastery in choir singing. Abbado may well be the best free choir training app around. No app suits everyone, but there's only one way to find out if Abbado suits you. You have to try it. If you have access to the repository of your choir, you may also access an activity list, play lists, PDF lists and messages from the choir.
