I'm going to be recommending a different app every week which I've found helpful in my life as an instrumental teacher, producer and/or musician in general. forScore, in simple terms, is a PDF viewer specifically for reading sheet music files. What makes it helpful for the music teacher or performer is the way the pages within a PDF can be rearranged and annotated. You can also add to your score library by simply taking a photograph of your hardcopy sheet music. Alongside this you have an inbuilt metronome, tuner and audio recorder to capture ideas. If you want to get really technical you can even add a foot-controlled page turner which is powered via Bluetooth.

I'm going to be recommending a different app every week which I've found helpful in my life as an instrumental teacher, producer and/or musician in general. This week I've chosen an app that I use in teaching pretty much every single day. There are many metronome apps out there but I have found this to be simple and effective and importantly, it's free! It covers all the common time signatures - 4/4, 2/4, 3/4, 6/8 etc; has an aural and visual emphasis on Beat 1 and also contains a "tap tempo" function. This is really useful if you're trying to calculate the speed of a song or note down a comfortable tempo when you're just starting out with your time-keeping.
