Who We Are
MakeMusic, Inc. is the world leader in software and systems for music educators and musicians. Among our leading products are Finale®, the world’s best-selling music notation software and SmartMusic®, the complete music practice system that features Intelligent Accompaniment® and the world’s largest interactive accompaniment library.
Our Market
Music educators and music makers worldwide. In the U.S. alone there are more than 100,000 music educators and more than 60 million active music makers (playing an instrument or singing at least once a month).
Our Mission
To develop and market solutions that transform how music is composed, taught, learned, and performed.
Our Strategy
MakeMusic is the only company that creates, owns and licenses the most advanced and patented technologies and solutions that support the composition, arranging, teaching, learning and playing of music. This creates a major barrier to entry for competitors. MakeMusic’s solutions independently are already established as market leaders; collectively they create a huge advantage for music educators, music makers and the professionals serving them such as music publishers.
This is accomplished by:
- Providing integrated technology, content and web services to enhance and expand how music is taught, learned and prepared for performance.
- Providing music education content developers with a technology-enriched publishing platform that leverages their copyrighted assets while simultaneously increasing the content and value of the SmartMusic library.
- Offering software solutions for engraving and electronically distributing sheet music.
