“…Notably, whereas most of the studies conceived for education target adult learners (typically for self-training), a growing number of works are being devised for children [5], [49], [87], [128], [162]. For instance, Farinazzo et al proposed MUSIC-AR, a set of software that uses AR for teaching children sound properties, such as timbre, pitch and sound intensity [56].…”

The intersection between music and Extended Reality (XR) has grown significantly over the past twenty years, amounting to an established area of research today. The use of XR technologies represents a fundamental paradigm shift for various musical contexts as they disrupt traditional notions of musical interaction by enabling performers and audiences to interact musically with virtual objects, agents, and environments. This article both surveys and expands upon the knowledge accumulated in existing research in this area to build a foundation for future works that bring together Music and XR. To this end, we created a freely available dataset of 260 publications in this space and conducted an in-depth analysis covering 199 works in the last decade. We conducted this analysis using a list of conceptual dimensions belonging to technical, artistic, perceptual and methodological domains. This review of the literature is complemented with a set of interviews with domain experts with the goal of establishing a definition for the emergent field of Musical XR, i.e., the field of music in Extended Realities. Based on the results of the conducted review, a research agenda for the field is proposed.

“…Additionally, a FFT phase correlation analysis is utilized to decide whether the student's head is turned to the left or right. Another Android app, called AR Musical [15], can keep learners highly engaged in the learning activity and provoke their motivation and interest. It was implemented for the evaluation of the effectiveness of teaching musical notes to children.…”

Music learning (here, thinking of playing piano) without professor can be a real challenge. This can be difficult to achieve, given some traditional approaches to manage this process are still insufficiently satisfactory. Beyond the wellknown computer-assisted music learning tools (1) screenbased and (2) hardware-based, a promising solution for piano learning is based on augmented reality (AR). This technology provides an ideal environment for the student, but of course, it is not enough to become a career musician. In this paper, we propose an application that helps all those who want to learn to play the piano in a friendly way, starting with understanding sheet music. By projecting information onto the instrument, our AR system can create more direct interactions for the user.

“…Thanks to rising research focus on using AR for educational purposes, studies on AR-assisted music education have also started to gain momentum. For example, Lemos et al (2017) evaluated the effectiveness of teaching musical notes to children with an Android app called AR Musical . Their findings reveal that this app can keep learners highly engaged in the learning activity and provoke their motivation and interest, which in turn help participants gain accurate knowledge of the learning content.…”

Given the rapid growth of music technology, this study reports Chinese pre-service music teachers’ perceptions of musical instrument learning assisted by augmented reality (AR). In this study, we conducted a small-scale case study with six pre-service teachers enrolled in a music teacher training programme at a comprehensive university in China. Participants engaged in semi-structured, face-to-face interviews after hands-on experiences with an AR-based piano learning app. Thematic analysis revealed that the participants were generally aware of the potential of this instructional approach but doubted its efficacy and exhibited weak intention to adopt it in their future classrooms. Implications of the findings for music teacher training are discussed.
