The Lesson Metaphor

The exchange of musical information at WholeNote is based upon the sharing of lessons. A lesson has a certain theme (i.e. blues licks, double-stops, uses for a diminished chord, etc.). Each lesson has several pages which present examples of this concept. Thus, each lesson page can contain a musical example, and some accompanying text to describe the music. You create guitar parts and arrangements using WholeNote's Composer and Groove Builder. Then, during lesson creation, you provide some general information about the lesson (such as a style, a skill level, and a description), and then use WholeNote's Lesson Builder authoring tool to specify the music examples and related text. Any lessons that you decide to publish can be viewed by visitors as tablature and heard as MIDI music.
