I believe that every person, regardless of discipline, deserves an intuitive, well-designed digital experience for the tools central to their craft. This is not a luxury. It is foundational to living and working in the modern world. Musicians have been asked to accept less than that for too long. The technology to build a better solution has existed for years. What was missing was someone willing to close the gap between what was technically possible and what musicians actually deserved. So I started building it. Every morning, before my family wakes up, before my day job begins. Not because there is a business case I am trying to prove, though I believe there is one. But because I have a wife who is one of the most gifted musicians I have ever known, and a seven-year-old son who is just now taking his first music lessons, and I want both of them to be able to pick up an iPad, open an app, and have an experience that actually meets them where they are. That is the range eSuite is built for—from the beginner finding his footing to the professional who cannot afford a single missed page turn. Watching digital sheet music adoption grow slowly, concert by concert, year by year—one more iPad on stage than the year before—has been equal parts encouraging and painful. Because I know that most of those musicians are getting a fraction of the experience they could be having. The technology exists. The design principles exist. They just have not been applied here yet. That changes now. eSuite is my answer to a question I have been sitting with for ten years. It is built for my wife. It is built for my son. And it is built for every musician in between who deserves a digital experience that is finally worthy of their craft.
