    Brenda, thanks so much for this. After a 40 year career in healthcare I retired last year. I decided to get back in to music as a hobby. I was stunned to find out no one wants an old guy who can’t play in their band.😄 this app is perfect for what I need to get back in shape. Thanks for sharing!

    Thank you Brenda. I attended a wonderful Christmas sing-a -long and couldn't help feeling envious of the wonderful piano player who was using and understanding all the chords as he played the accompaniment to all the songs. On his piano was his iPad with iReal Pro showing all the chords. I asked him about the app and he helped me download it. I have a long way to go to be able to play the chords as well as he does, but I will be working on that goal. I also just took a voice class and I can tell this app can help with that also! Thank you! Lori

    There IS a way to give singers tonal context when starting a song in iRealPro. Highlight the bar you want to start in. That could be the last bar of the song or the first of the last 4 bars of the song. It’s a way to hear an intro into the chorus (the song form).

      I’m glad you get it. You can give yourself a 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 bar intro, or even start the tune on the bridge.

    Hi Brenda, Roberto from your class group.
    Loved this tutorial. I have iReal pro but don't use it very much, now I'm dying to put it to work for me.
    All the different ways you just mentioned to use it.
    Great class, great tutorial.
    Till next zoom class,
    Adios, hasta luego.

    Very informative. Heading off to a jazz weekend in a few days where the musicians use it to play along ...if you are a singer you can quickly set the chords for your backing group to use.

    Garageband does all of this but is maybe too complex for some. I guess that's the target. One can lay down fairly quickly a backing track in Garage Band and just mute tracks and or loop a part and practice only the chorus for example. Maybe I'll try this though for a quicker drummer.

    • @PianoandVoicewithBrenda
      @PianoandVoicewithBrenda  Рік тому

      This app is super versatile and is plug and play. You could do it in GarageBand but it would take you ages to get all the songs in and the grooves.

    Too much focus on you. I would like it more if we could see the printed page you're working with while you're singing. Sounds like good information, but nothing to compare it with while watching you without seeing where you're getting the information during the performance.

      @@PianoandVoicewithBrenda Yes, that would be interesting. Also, anywhere one can find the lyrics to a song? Seems one has to know the lyrics before one can sing the song. I'm not that smart. I think I know the song, but basically only the words here and there.
