Our vision for home practice
See how home practice can support your teaching, not compete with it. The Sharpest Note puts printed music first, keeps tech simple, and guides students with short, focused exercises — all in a calm, distraction-free interface.
Lessons continue exactly as usual. The tools reinforce what you teach, phrase by phrase.
Short reps target phrasing, rhythm, and intonation — meaningful practice without turning it into screen time.
PDFs are easy to buy, download, and print. No accounts, no apps, nothing for students to manage.

- Teacher chooses a unit — same as any sheet music you’d normally assign.
- Parents purchase & print — PDFs are sold on Gumroad: easy to download and print.
- In lesson — Teach as usual, assigning specific exercises from the unit.
- Home practice — This is where The Sharpest Note shines: phrase-based practice and immediate feedback, plus accompaniment tracks even when the parent's aren't classically trained.

Frequently Asked Questions
Last updated: 31st Dec 2025
What is The Sharpest Note?
The Sharpest Note is a collection of musical beginner units that combine printable sheet music with interactive practice tools. Each unit is designed to support early learning through listening, reading, and playful repetition.
Who is this for?
Like method books, teachers choose the material and families purchase individual units for their student. The units also work well for self-guided adult beginners who want structured, musical practice. They fit one-to-one lessons and are easy to use at home.
Which instruments are supported?
The Sharpest Note plans to support a wide range of orchestral instruments. Stay tuned or join the mailing list on Gumroad!
What level are the units?
The Sharpest Note focuses on early beginner to early-intermediate levels, roughly the first 2–4 years of study. Units are designed to fit alongside any method or curriculum.
Does this replace my method book?
No. The Sharpest Note is meant to supplement your existing method books and repertoire. Teachers typically use the units as:
- first repertoire
- reinforcement pieces
- listening and intonation support
- structured practice material
What's included in a unit?
Each unit includes:
- printable PDFs (score and parts)
- accompaniment and play-along audio (MP3)
- interactive practice tools and games
- QR codes linking students directly to the online materials
How do students access the interactive materials?
Students scan the QR code in the sheet music or visit the unit page directly. No accounts or logins are required.
Is this a subscription?
No. All units are one-time purchases.
Can I use this with all my students?
Each unit is licensed for a single household (one student and their family). Teachers should recommend that families purchase their own copy, or purchase on behalf of a single student. For studio-wide or institutional use, please contact us.
Can I share the files with my students?
Yes, within the licensed household and their teacher. The PDFs and audio may be shared between the student, their family, and their teacher for study and practice.
Can I share the materials publicly or resell them?
No. The materials may not be resold, redistributed publicly, or uploaded to shared drives or websites. For broader licensing needs, reach out to us.
Do students need accounts or personal data?
No. Students do not need accounts, and no personal data is collected on this site.
Why are some units free?
Free units are provided as demos so teachers and students can explore how The Sharpest Note works before purchasing paid units.
Can I use this in a school or institution?
If you teach in a school, institution, or multi-teacher program and need broader usage, please get in touch for a wider license.
Who makes The Sharpest Note?
The Sharpest Note is created by Pekka Pulli, a Finnish sound and UX designer, developer, composer, and dad of two string instrument players (a cellist and a violist). Other composers on the platform are experienced music pedagogists.
The project grew out of real teaching rooms and real home practice: trying to make beginner material that sounds musical, feels calm to use, and actually helps students practice between classes.
