This is an excellent tool for performance preparation as well as improvisation practice.” (Dana Rice, teacher, blogger)

More reasons why teachers and students love Musical Words

“The great thing about Musical Words that many games don’t do is that it gets the students playing, sight-reading, improvising and really paying attention to what the character of the piece is and how they can portray that to their listeners.” (Jennifer Fox, Teacher, Clinician, Blogger) Read Full Review Here

“…music teachers are happy to embrace modern technology, but something needs to be said for good old fashioned board games too. After trying out this game with my pupils, I would whole heartedly recommend MUSICAL WORDS to you as a supplement for your summer camp programmes or individual and class music lessons. It would offer bags of fun, encourage improvisation and would really open up a fab way to the world of creativity.” (Elena Cobb, Pianist, Composer, Creator of the Higgledy Piggledy Jazz series)

“As music teachers we are often prone to feeding endless technical and musical instructions to our students. ”wrist up! shoulders down! play that staccato! you are slowing down here!” While these instructions are great, should we not also be stimulating their creative imaginations so they add character to their interpretations? Well, the board game Musical Words is designed to do just that!” (Sam Rao, Creator Practicia App)

“I built in a lot of flexibility when designing this game musical words the board gameso teachers could use the board and basic game format to supplement work in different areas from dynamics & expression, to mood & character, to music history & style. Players can Improvise, perform live, or use recordings. Sometimes I’m asked, “Why a board game? Everybody wants apps now.” I answer, “Because this is about musical meaning and expression, an app would just not do the job.” Musical Words is interactive and is played live, in person, and with others.” (Gail Fischler, creator Musical Words)
