Awesome Amazing African App
The songs are so beautiful! I'm having a blast playing along with them. Some of them are hard but I'm looking forward to learn something totally new on the guitar. There's so much material to discover and the option to slow down and repeat a section is very helpful.
Unbelievable App
What a great App ? I can finally understand better where is the downbeat in African music :-) Wow!!!! Thanks for answering so many questions guys. YOU MAKE MY DREAM COME TRUE :-)
John Scofield is so right man... Groove!!! Groove!! Groove!!
Finally a great guitar app!!
This is truly an amazing achievement! Lionel is a master in both playing and demonstrating how to perform the vast and rich musical tradition of his continent.
The sound is impressive and the app is very clear on how to get these guitar techniques in your hands. The compositions are beautiful and inspiring. The notation is very clear and useful. All in all a great learning tool!!
Fun times in Africa
I love this app! Learning to play guitar can be frustrating for me, so being able to play along with these funky tunes is a revelation. Not only am I learning all these African music styles that I didn't know about, it's also super fun. It doesn't feel like learning or practice. I'm totally playing with Lionel Loueke and a band...if I close my eyes. Woot!!
A new page in the history of jazz !
To me this App is one of the most fascinating and illuminating Apps ever made. All of the musical examples are so stimulating. For musicians looking to expand their harmonic - rhythmic and melodic vocabulary, that's the real deal!
Comprehensive Overview of African Music
I have been searching for something like this for a long time. This app demystifies the huge umbrella category of "African music" and breaks it down into different styles from specific countries. The sheet music is very helpful to follow along, and I like how you can mute specific instruments to really understand each part of the groove. Plus, with this app, you get to play with African guitar master Lionel Loueke whenever you want!
A Case Study in World Music Education
Absolutely wonderful! This the perfect example for tutorial apps in world music. I hope there will be more for all the great music in the world. Bravo!
Need finger tab version
Would be great to have a finger tab version for those of us who do not read music.... Song selection could be expanded, though existing selections are nicely implemented.

Amazing and beautiful app. Extraordinary grooves. Listen first and foremost. Improve your
reading by listening and looking at clean and accurate notation.This app is a gift and will take you places.
Excellent app
This app can support and inspire, and is a worthwhile complement to the essential iReal Pro, a game changer for musicians on iOS and ANDROID.
superb app for musicians
gives you terrific compositions with ability to mute guitar and bass, drum and click, modify pitch tempo with real recordings with great feel. Totally cool learning and jamming. A must for bassist or guitarist who wants to expand his groove and chops. The composer has the goods, so does the app company (real book pro) SO GOOD
Amazing app
This app takes you to a guitar voyage across Africa!
