The Studio Tools

Piano Glossary

The Piano Glossary is the studio’s reference desk: the terms you hear in rehearsals, charts and producer sessions, defined in plain musician language.

How to use it

  • Search or browse alphabetically when a chart or a bandleader throws a term at you.
  • Cross-reference with the tools: read “tritone substitution” here, then go hear one in the Reharmonization Engine.

Pro tip

The Studio Coach knows the glossary too — mid-practice, it’s often faster to just ask the chat bubble “what does quartal mean?” and keep playing.
