As Ursuline Academy senior Meredith Vieira played her oboe, she sat in front of a computer screen that let her read the musical score for Bach’s “Sinfonia.” But it also presented an innovative music lesson. Computer software the school recently installed not only provided harpsichord accompaniment and showed her where she was playing note by note but also gave her an instant assessment by showing her the notes she played correctly. If she came in too soon or too late or hit the wrong pitch, the note turned red; a green note let her know she played it correctly.
