Yousician(R) announces today the release of bass guitar to its revolutionary music
education platform, empowering even more people to learn to play an instrument, improve
musical skills and unleash their creative potential. After helping millions of users play

platform and customizable learning path have been extended today to bass guitar, and to
piano and ukulele in the previous months. Now anyone with one of these popular instruments
can begin their musical journey with meaningful courses and feedback for free with

content and challenges to keep users engaged.

navigating diverse musical genres necessary for any bass guitar player. For Piano,
Yousician has developed customizable paths for learning standard notation, and encourages

needs of users and teachers in our community," said Chris Thuer, Yousician's chief
executive officer. "By adding these instruments to our platform we are fulfilling the
requests of our community, and are three steps closer to realizing our vision of making
