TEACHERS AND STUDENTS LOVE IT

“My initial reaction was, ‘Wow. How is this possible?’ After that, it was ‘Where have you been all my life!’ I just find it incredible how, for instance, I can do as much rubato as I want and, somehow, the orchestra is able to just follow. That is remarkably useful when practicing or performing with the app.”
– Njioma G., Violin student

“I use Cadenza nearly every day in my studio. My students love it.”
– Kurt Sassmannshaus, Violin Faculty, Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music

"It felt like I was playing in Carnegie Hall with an orchestra behind me!"
– Emma B., Violin student

“Get it! — It’s the game-changer we have been waiting for!”
– Veee1682
