Abstract

This paper presents a survey of recent work in computer-assisted musical instrumental tutoring and outlines several questions to consider when developing future projects. In particular, we suggest that the area ingreatest need of computer assistance is enhancing daily practice: both motivating students to practice through games and multimedia, and providing an objective analysis of the students' performance. Many existing projects attempt to replace human teachers by providing lessons during daily practice; in most cases, these "daily lessons" are not necessary.
