Sight-reading trainer for pianists

Fluent in twelve minutes a day.

PRIMA generates music you've never seen, grades every note through your MIDI keyboard, and adapts to hold you at ~85% success — no levels to pick, a controller. No other app we've found does all three.

Exercise 3 of 5 F major · ♩ = 66

Keep your eyes a beat ahead — the music fades behind the cursor.

How it works

Twelve minutes, start to score.

USB · connected 01

Connect

Plug in any MIDI keyboard — USB, or Bluetooth paired with your computer. No apps to install — your browser hears every note you play.

♩ = 88 · bar 5 of 8 02

Play

Short exercises generated fresh every time on a real grand staff — music you've never seen, so every rep is true sight-reading. A count-in, a beat cursor, focused reading.

difficulty · adaptive 03
85%

Adapt

Every exercise is scored on pitch, timing, continuity and steadiness. No levels to pick — a controller holds you near 85% success, right at the edge of your reading.

A chess rating, for reading music

Your reading has a number. Watch it climb.

No stars, no streak guilt, no levels to grind. Your Reading Rating rises as you read harder material accurately — and tells the truth when you don't. Progress you can point to.
