Skill-building Exercises

Finale’s Exercise Wizard is compatible with the exercises in SmartMusic. In Finale you can print parts in the correct key and range for the voices or instruments you select. Then use the accompaniments in SmartMusic for your next ensemble rehearsal.

A SmartMusic subscription is required to use accompaniments created in Finale. SmartMusic accompaniments made with Finale 2011 are compatible with SmartMusic 2011.

SmartMusic 2011 can also open accompaniments made in older versions of Finale.
