Frequently asked questions
What is the best software for marimba teachers?
Nova Music is a free studio management platform ideal for marimba and mallet percussion teachers. Track grip types and technique levels with custom tags, share repertoire and exercises through the resource library, and manage scheduling around instrument availability.
Can I track different mallet grip progressions?
Yes. Nova Music's custom tags let you record each student's grip type (Stevens, Burton, Musser, traditional), mallet count, and technique level. Update these as students progress so lesson planning always reflects their current abilities.
How do I manage limited instrument availability?
Use Nova Music's scheduling features to coordinate lesson times and ensure students have instrument access. Tags can note which students have home instruments versus those who only practice at your studio, helping you plan practice expectations accordingly.
