Our verdict on MasterPiano
MasterPiano is a piano practice app for learners building sight-reading and foundational playing skills. Its curriculum uses standard sheet music, graded pieces, adaptive difficulty, and exercises covering scales, arpeggios, chords, and harmony. Practice mode waits for the learner’s notes, while Performance mode scores accuracy and tempo. The app runs on the web and on iPhone and iPad, with MIDI keyboard support for interactive note feedback.
The free plan costs nothing and includes access to 8,000+ pieces, daily practice with limits, and a sight-reading assessment. Premium Monthly costs $19.99 per month and adds unlimited practice, infinite graded sight-reading pieces, all drills, scales and arpeggios, and the full library with per-note feedback. Premium Yearly costs $99.99 per year on annual billing and includes the same features. The published Premium yearly plan includes a 7-day trial. Learners comparing plans should note that the free tier is suited to limited daily sessions, while Premium is designed for regular, uninterrupted practice.
MasterPiano’s strongest fit is a solo piano learner who wants a structured reading routine with measurable practice signals. Progress tracking covers scores, streaks, and improvement, and the combination of adaptive pieces, MIDI feedback, and waiting-for-notes practice supports focused repetition. A compatible USB or Bluetooth MIDI keyboard is needed for the MIDI-based feedback experience, and the product’s curriculum scope is one instrument: piano. Choose it for graded reading, technical drills, and chord work across browser and mobile sessions; choose another app if you need broader instrument coverage or practice that does not depend on a MIDI keyboard.
