About Concert Companion

What is Concert Companion?

Concert Companion is a practice planner for musicians. It helps conservatoire students and working musicians organise repertoire, plan practice, prepare programmes and concerts, and keep a private record of the work. Its Library holds the texts singers learn and the scores choirs rehearse from.

Who it is for.

It is for musicians with more repertoire than fits comfortably in one head: pianists, singers, string players, wind players, music students, and working performers.

What it brings together.

The app combines repertoire states, practice planning, programmes, concerts, a private diary, recordings, a timer, and a metronome. It is designed around preparation for real performances.

Texts for singers.

The Library holds the full sung text of more than 9,000 arias, songs and choruses from over 2,800 works. Every line has a word-for-word translation and IPA, and a spoken voice reads the text aloud. Memorize games help you learn it by heart.

Choir scores.

The Library also holds more than 23,000 choir scores from the Choral Public Domain Library (CPDL). Each part plays back in a synthesized voice, so you choose your part and hear its notes.

Where it runs.

Concert Companion works in a browser and is available as an Android app. You can start with a free account and use the same repertoire wherever you practise.
