Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: My Cello Coach at none against Notevision's 1. My Cello Coach also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Notevision's advantage is ratings volume (3.3K vs 1). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Notevision sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. My Cello Coach asks for nothing beyond the download.
My Cello Coach holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Notevision has 3.3K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
