Solo / Tutti Sheet Music - OKTAV Strings 🎻

At OKTAV, you can practice with or without piano accompaniment. Here you'll learn how to switch between Tutti and Solo and what changes.

You can decide for yourself how much you see in the sheet music: your part together with the piano accompaniment, or just your violin or cello part. This lets you tailor the view to your practice.

The following views are available:

  • Tutti: You see your violin or cello part together with the piano accompaniment. This helps you keep track of how the parts fit together and lets you know at all times what the piano is playing.

  • Solo: Only your violin or cello part is displayed. Ideal when you want to focus entirely on your own part.

By default, what you hear during playback also adapts to the selected view. However, under “Playback” you can adjust the sound independently. For example, you can practice with piano accompaniment even in Solo view.

💡 Tip: Practice difficult passages in Solo view first, then switch to Tutti view as soon as you want to play along with the piano accompaniment. You can switch back and forth between the two views at any time.

Where can I find the option?

In both the web browser and the app (iOS and Android), you’ll find the selection in the top right of the navigation bar, right next to the arrangement mode selection (Standard or Interactive).
