listen. sing. play.

With "band-on" you play music by ear. For this purpose, our media library contains tunes from several genres and styles, which we adapted, arranged and recorded for different levels of difficulty. Thus, we want to create an intuitive access to music, no matter if you are a beginner, advanced or professional. Our app offers you all the functions you need to work with the tunes with maximum flexibility - without sacrificing sound quality.
