Must have.

If you’re serious about playing changes and standards, or jamming over grooves, or basically anything to do with performing in a band, this is a must have app. When I was learning to play I spent hundreds of dollars on stuff that was no where near as good as this. Times have changed. Just buy it and start practicing.

The word "Brilliant" is an understatement!!!!

Downloaded this on the recommendation from someone on a Gypsy Jazz FaceBook group and was immediately blown away. So easy, so simple and yet so powerful. Within 5 min from within the app I found on the apps forums exactly the charts for the songs I wanted to jam with, downloaded them into the app and was up and working on my solos to those tunes with full bass and piano back tracks. The feel and tempo are spot on for that style. Didn't expect for it to be this good. Incredible!

IReal Pro Is The Greatest Practice Tool!

I recently bought IReal Pro after years of trying other methods. For me, it's a fantastic practice tool in every way. The huge number of great jazz Real Book standards available is a wonderful library for practice in every key, no matter what methods or instrument you use. Add to this the blues and pop and country and other tunes available---plus the Forum where you can download hundreds of other tunes and practice routines---- IReal Pro is an essential practice tool for any serious musician.
