Viola Vista – School Edition helps students understand the connection between the viola fingerboard, alto clef notation, and real instrument playing. Designed for classroom instruction, private studios, and independent practice, it supports a wide range of learning styles through clear visual feedback and structured study modes.

Three Core Study Modes
1. Fingerboard Explorer
Explore the relationship between the viola fingerboard and the music staff.
Tap notes on either view to see the corresponding position highlighted and hear the pitch, strengthening note recognition and fingerboard awareness.
2. Sight Reading Trainer
