Why not take a whole band or symphony orchestra into the classroom? The songbook from Grieg Music Education is an interactive songbook which lets pupils sing along to songs in a range of categories and even replace the vocals with their own voices. All the music is performed by a genuine band and by the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra.

The GME songbook contains both traditional and popular songs performed by a genuine band or an orchestra. It will also be continually updated with seasonal and theme-based songs. The advanced edition of the songbook allows users to record their own singing along with videos of their performance.

Better than printed books

The songbook allows you to easily add traditional songs or modern rock and pop songs to itslearning. All the songs come complete with lyrics, music, notation, karaoke and recording functions.

All recordings are stored on the student’s profile and can be submitted to the teacher or shared with friends.

For practical reasons the recording feature will not be available during the trial period.
