Tonic is a card game designed to help musicians to learn to improvise and compose music.

A spokesperson told us, "Improvisation is the #1 greatest thing a musician can do to improve him or herself as a player and as a person. The tragedy is that it's not taught in standard music programs, and as a result most musicians are afraid of playing ANY music that isn't written down for them. My mission is to help make creation more accessible and show people that is is not just for jazz musicians. Tonic can be downloaded for free at tonicgame.com, because I want to share this message far and wide. No theory or experience required-- the idea is to introduce an element of "play" into the practice room. So far, people love it! We're well over 160% funded and have been covered by All About Jazz, Jazzcorner, and others."
