ABSTRACT:
A method to assist a musical performer to learn or to perform a multi-voice musical piece comprises: 1) the transmission of a solo performance of a single voice of the musical piece synchronized with the overall performance of that piece and 2) the reception of that transmission by some other performer who needs assistance with his performance of the piece and who uses that reception as a lead performance. The method utilizes two pieces of electronic hardware: 1) one or more radio frequency transmitters, each of which is transmitting a lead performance of a different voice of the musical piece within the confines of the performance area and 2) one or more radio frequency receivers and earphones worn by each using performer within this performance area, each of which is tuned in to one of these lead performance transmissions. Each of the transmitters would broadcast a lead performance of a different voice of the musical piece originating from a soloist performing that voice. Each receiver and earphone worn by a using performer would be tuned to the transmitted voice of interest to that user.
