<p>If you are wondering about how useful an IPAD is to a music performance student…</p>
<p>[Finale</a> iPad View Preview – Updated - YouTube](<a href=“http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrf3cTGqmZ8&feature=player_embedded#]Finale”>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrf3cTGqmZ8&feature=player_embedded#)!</p>
<p>D uses her Finale app all the time, in rehearsals, in lessons, in coachings. She especially loves the transposition feature. She gave me a little demo last night. FANTASTIC</p>
<p>And no…I do not work for Apple. :)</p>
<p>and the Finale app is free!!!</p>
<p>D is using it too!! We are going to Disney World in December and she has grad school auditions starting in January, so we were worried about the lack of a piano for her to practice and she couldn’t afford to miss 10 days without singing. After some research, I came across Finale and another nice piano app which solved the problem.
Isn’t technology great?!</p>
<p>Yah! D put off buying herself an IPAD until she saw the Finale app demo’d at the NAMM show. She also finds the case with the attached keyboard helpful when she is adding notations to music and to her lesson plans.</p>
<p>Thanks for he link.</p>
<p>I just emailed it to my daughter.</p>
<p>We recently bought iPads…and they have been great for navigating around Europe with the map feature.</p>
<p>We bought the AT&T versions because they run on the same technology Internet base that is used in Europe…so it was very easy to go to Internet stoes in Italy and France and bye pay as you go Internet card…The newest version of iPad also has a card slot in the Verizon model but I was not confident it would work in Europe after reading some online post so did not want to chance it.</p>
