Turn the sound on.

A 37-second film with an English voice-over and music.

The voice-over is in English.

Find it. Play it.

Start with a song you love.

The Songs Library screen: searching "let it be" with a genre filter, showing one real match with its key and tempo.

Songs

Famous songs, with their chords.

Search it, filter by genre, expand a row. Every song comes with its original key and its chords, section by section.

Independent, simplified chord progressions. Not official sheet music, no lyrics, and not affiliated with the artists.

  • 979 famous songs, each with its original key
  • Search by title or artist, filter by genre
  • Open any song straight into Studio
The Studio screen's Write Your Own Song panel: upload, import ChordPro or .txt, add a section, add a chord, with the sample chart the app opens with.

Studio

Paste a chart. Play along.

Write your own, or import a ChordPro or .txt file. Musicante keeps every chord aligned above the words as you transpose.

  • Transpose to any key with one tap
  • Set a capo, or let Musicante suggest the easiest one
  • Play along with a metronome and tap tempo

The library gives you the chords. Paste your own chart, words and all, and Musicante keeps every chord above the right word, in any key.

Not your key? Move it.

Transpose

One tap shifts the whole song. Every chord, instantly. The suffix never moves, only the root respells.

Verse (C)
C G Am F C G F C
Verse (B♭)
Bb F Gm Eb Bb F Eb Bb
Verse (D)
D A Bm G D A G D

Or let the capo do the work. Musicante finds the position that gives you the easiest shapes: capo 3 for B♭, capo 7 for D, and you are back on the shapes you already know.

Transposing moves every chord in a song by the same interval while keeping each chord’s quality (major, minor, seventh) exactly as written; only the root note respells. Let It Be in C (Verse: C, G, A minor, F, C, G, F, C) becomes B flat down a tone (B flat, F, G minor, E flat, B flat, F, E flat, B flat) or D up a tone (D, A, B minor, G, D, A, G, D). Musicante also suggests a capo position so you can keep playing the shapes you already know: capo 3 for B flat, capo 7 for D.
