Musicca is a free music-learning platform for students, educators, and musicians, available on the web and mobile devices. Exercises cover notes, rhythms, intervals, chords, scales, key signatures, instruments, and genres. Learners can also use virtual piano and guitar tools, a metronome, tuner, chord finder, and scale finder. Points, medals, stars, streaks, and weekly leaderboards add game elements to practice. An account is needed to save exercise progress; registration is available by email, Google, or Facebook. Teachers can create classes to manage students and follow their progress. Musicca says logged-in users do not see ads, while advertising helps keep the service free. Users can disable the leaderboard. For enrolled students, names, email addresses, and exercise progress are shared with their teacher. The service has no app, but its website works on mobile with an internet connection. It offers no offline access or live feedback during practice. Musicca was founded in Denmark in 2019 by Lasse Grubbe. Help articles and company contact are available for support.
