Sound Innovations has become an extremely popular method, due in part to its solid pedagogy, clean format, and availability in SmartMusic.

We’ve recently added Sound Innovations, Book 1, for both band and orchestra, to the free version of SmartMusic. Now all your students can complete Sound Innovations Book 1 assignments regardless of their access level!

When students open assignments in SmartMusic, they can:

  • Practice with accompaniment
  • Get immediate feedback on pitch and rhythm
  • Hear recordings of their performances for self-evaluation
  • Use SmartMusic’s other tools including metronome and tuner

You can set up assignments in SmartMusic to track your students’ progress as they play through Sound Innovations. Find areas that need work, emphasize the curriculum that matters, and hear every student improve.
