## Description

Starting band this fall? Learn to name, finger, and play your first five notes — free on all 10 beginning band instruments. Built by a band director.

Just got your instrument? Start here.

First 5 Notes teaches the first five notes every beginning band student learns — free, on all ten beginning band instruments: flute, clarinet, alto sax, tenor sax, trumpet, French horn, trombone, baritone, tuba, and bells.

Pick your instrument and follow a clear learning path, built the way a band director actually teaches:

1. NAME THE NOTE — learn to read each note on the staff and build a streak
2. KNOW THE FINGERING — match each note to its fingering (slide positions on trombone) and hear the pitch
3. PLAY THE NOTE — play into the microphone and hold the note steady until the tuner locks it in

THE FIRST FIVE NOTES ARE FREE. FOREVER.
Every instrument, no trial, no time limit. The same concert B-flat, C, D, E-flat, and F your band director starts with.

GOING FURTHER?
A one-time $4.99 unlock opens your instrument's full beginning range — every note and every fingering, step by step. Buy only the instrument you play. Family Sharing is supported, so one purchase can cover the whole family.

FOR PARENTS AND DIRECTORS
• One-time purchase — no subscription
• No account needed — an optional parent sign-in exists only to restore purchases made on our website
• No ads, no tracking
• The microphone is used only to hear the note being played, and the sound is processed on the device — never recorded, saved, or sent anywhere
• A parental gate comes before every purchase
• Practice anywhere — no internet connection needed

Switching instruments is always free, and each instrument keeps its own progress — handy when two kids share one device.

First 5 Notes was built by a band director who teaches beginners every week. The first two weeks decide whether a student sticks with band, and these five notes are where it starts.

From the maker of Virtunity, the audition prep app for band students — virtunity.io.
