About “Over The Rainbow”

Why does the accompaniment for "Over The Rainbow" show falling notes?
Falling Notes makes each chord visual — colored notes drop onto the keyboard so you can FEEL the rhythm of the backing before each entry. Singers find it easier to lock in with the piano's groove when they see the chord notes land instead of just hearing them.
What key is the piano accompaniment for "Over The Rainbow" by Eva Cassidy in?
The backing track is in Db at 88 BPM. If that doesn't sit in your vocal range, use the live transpose control to shift up or down semitones — the accompaniment moves with the new key automatically.
Can I sing over "Over The Rainbow" with this accompaniment?
Yes — that's exactly what it's built for. The vocal melody is muted by default so you can sing freely. Need a pitch reference? Tap the mic icon to bring the melody back in at a lower volume.
Is this a karaoke version of "Over The Rainbow"?
Effectively yes — it's the piano-only backing for "Over The Rainbow", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.
Can I use "Over The Rainbow" as a backing track for my instrument?
Absolutely. Singers, guitarists, violinists, wind players, and instrumental practice in general all work — the piano holds the harmony so you can carry the melody on whatever instrument you play.
Can I download the accompaniment for "Over The Rainbow"?

Can I use "Over The Rainbow" as a backing track for singing?
Yes — this is the piano accompaniment for Over The Rainbow by Eva Cassidy, with the chord notes falling visually so you can see exactly when each chord lands. Original key is Db; transpose live to fit your voice.
