Sing Master: An Intelligent Mobile Game for Teaching Singing

In this paper we present singMaster - a new mobile application that allows singing enthusiasts to fulfil their dream: to learn singing. SingMaster is a game-like singing tutor that presents a series of singing exercises focused on musical intervals (e.g. major third). Furthermore, we motivate the use of software to evaluate and teach singing compared to a conventional singing coach. Further, we summarise some very similar software applications and outline what are the benefits of singMaster compared to them. We finish by describing SingMaster's most useful feature to 'hear' the melody being sung and the algorithm, which 'hears' the musical pitch.
