These applications focus on improving students' technical abilities, but lack the capability of monitoring the development of expressivity, a defining aspect of musical performance.

Some music education software also track time spent on practizing a piece. Software applications such as Wolfie, 1 Superscore, 2 and BandPad 3 score follow students whilst they play and mark notes played as correct or incorrect. Recent advances in music computing techniques and music data capture have enable parts of music learning to be supported by personal computers and smart mobile devices. The analysis reveals practice patterns and behavior differences between beginners and experts, such as a higher proportion of Drill-Smooth patterns in expert practice. The practice patterns found include Drill-Correct, Drill-Smooth, Memorization Strategy, Review and Explore, and Expressive Evolution. We then test the new system on practice sessions of pianists of varying levels of expertise ranging from novice to expert. The system takes beat and practice segment information together with a musical score in XML format as input, and produces a number of different visualizations: Practice Session Work Maps give an overview of contiguous practice segments Practice Segment Arcs make evident transitions and repeated segments Practice Session Precision Maps facilitate the identifying of errors Tempo-Loudness Evolution Graphs track expressive variations over the course of a practice session.

The Music Practice Browser provides a graphical interface for reviewing recorded practice sessions, which allows musicians, teachers, and researchers to examine aspects and features of music practice behaviors.

To bridge this gap, we present a novel visualization system, the Music Practice Browser, for representing, identifying, and analysing music practice behaviors. Practice is an essential part of music training, but critical content-based analyses of practice behaviors still lack tools for conveying informative representation of practice sessions.
