Note Fest Learn Play About

The game where you learn, play, and improve your violin skills by mastering note reading and finger positions!

How to Play

▼

The game displays a note, and you must select:

  • The correct note name (e.g., A, B, C, etc.)
  • The correct finger number:
    • 0 = Open String
    • 1 = Index Finger
    • 2 = Middle Finger (always specify High or Low)
    • 3 = Ring Finger
    • 4 = Pinky Finger
  • Select if the finger is Low (L) or High (H)
  • The correct accidental (sharp ♯ or flat ♭) when needed.

Keyboard Controls: You can play using your mouse or keyboard:

  • Note names: Press A, B, C, D, E, F, G keys
  • Finger numbers: Press 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 keys
  • Finger positions: Press H for High position, L for Low position
  • Accidentals: Press ↑ (Up Arrow) for Sharp, ↓ (Down Arrow) for Flat

Important Rules

▼
  • Notes played with fingers 1, 3, or 4 on tapes only require selecting the finger number.
  • All 2's must be specified as High or Low.
  • If the note makes no sound, it means you're missing a selection—either note name, finger number, accidental, or High/Low option.
