Avilo Android beta

Practise your own sheet music, bar by bar

Avilo reads the score you import and can play it with you. After each playing, you see which bars are in place, which are fragile and which still need work, until the day of the concert.

Bring your music

Export your piece from MuseScore, or any notation app, as MusicXML and open it in Avilo. The studies and pieces of the app are there too, from Kayser and Wohlfahrt to Bach and Vivaldi.

Four ways to play it

  • With the metronome, at a tempo that climbs little by little
  • Waited for: Avilo waits until you play each note, so you can learn the piece slowly
  • Followed: you set the tempo, Avilo follows
  • In duet: Avilo plays the passage with you
A Kayser study in Avilo: listen to it, play it as a duet, or play it with the metronome

The bars that are not ready

After each pass every bar takes a colour: in place, fragile, or to work on. A difficult passage becomes a short drill, with the bars around it.

A date to prepare

Enter the date of a concert, an exam or a lesson: the days left show under the title, and the piece goes into your daily session until that date.

A large page, and an editor

  • Turn the phone sideways: a large page readable from the music stand
  • Change fingerings, notes, lengths, bowings and slurs by touch
  • Record yourself and listen back

Questions

Which file formats can I import?

The MusicXML format (.musicxml, .xml or .mxl files), which MuseScore, Finale, Sibelius, Dorico and most notation apps export. A scanned PDF has to be converted first.

Can Avilo play the accompaniment?

It plays the violin line with you in duet mode. Piano accompaniments are not read yet.
