It combines the best practices of traditional music teaching and develops them further by defining specific content and elements that are essential for the highest standards. These are taught through a series of support pillars, using appropriate tools for each teaching situation. ABOUT PROF. GERALD WIRTH Gerald Wirth received his initial musical training as a member of the Vienna Boys Choir and at Anton Bruckner University in Linz, Austria, where he studied voice, oboe and piano. He became artistic director of the Vienna Boys Choir in 2001 and its president in 2013. From 1986 to 1989, Wirth was choir director with the Vienna Boys' Choir and led one of its four touring choirs. Between 1989 and 1991, he was chorus director of the Salzburg Opera. In Canada, he was artistic director of the Calgary Boys' Choir and musical director of the Calgary Civic Symphony. Wirth has conducted choirs and orchestras around the world, and he can make virtually anyone and anything sing. Wirth's first love is the human voice.

Learn a song, a poem, or a speech by heart — one line at a time. Strophe is a prompter for memorizing text word for word. Paste in the lyrics you're learning, or pick a piece from the built-in library, and practice it the way you'd actually perform it: line by line, in order, start to finish. RECALL BEFORE YOU SEE Strophe shows you nothing to begin with. You try to remember the first line, then tap to reveal it and check yourself. Tap again for the next. Nothing is on screen that you haven't already earned — a prompter that shows you the line first isn't an easier setting, it's no exercise at all. BE HONEST ABOUT THE HARD ONES Fumbled a line? Mark it shaky or missed. The walk doesn't rush on: you get a moment to work out what comes next, because the moment you admit you missed a line is the moment you've just read the correct one. IT DECIDES WHEN YOU PRACTICE At the end of a run, Strophe reads your line-by-line verdicts and schedules the next session — using FSRS, the same spaced-repetition algorithm serious memorizers use. Pieces you know come back rarely. Pieces you're still learning come back soon. You can always overrule it. BUILT FOR WHOLE PIECES A song is not a stack of flashcards. Strophe never shuffles your lines or drills them out of order, because the order is the thing you're learning. Verses, stanza breaks and section markers stay where they belong. Paste a long speech and it can split it into clause-length lines you can actually hold. NO STREAKS, NO BADGES, NO NAGGING One reminder a day at an hour you choose, and nothing else. No points, no congratulation, no pressure to come back. The session summary tells you what happened and what's next — that's all.
