Pianora helps you turn both into playable piano notes, so you can listen, follow along, and practice in a more intuitive way. From sheet music to piano Take a photo of your sheet music, import images or a PDF, or open a MusicXML file. Pianora recognizes the notes and opens them in a built-in player, ready for practice. Instead of guessing how the music should sound, you can hear it first, follow the currently playing measure, and learn at your own pace.
