Jonathan Susman accepts the first place award for his startup, Adagio, at Co. Lab’s 48Hour Public Demo Night on Sunday, March 30, 2014, at Church on Main in Chattanooga. Susman’s startup pushes to give teachers and students an innovative way to teach and learn music.Jonathan Susman walked away with the grand prize Sunday night at the conclusion of the Company Lab’s 48Hour Launch.
Susman over the weekend fleshed out an idea that he originally presented as Remote Audio Mixing, a “mechanism for accessing and manipulating multi-track audio recordings via any mobile device, and a methodology for increasing collaboration/instruction from professional educators, regardless of location.”
By Sunday, he had renamed his venture Adagio and had come up with a simple statement about what it will do.
Adagio “gives music educators tech that has been available to other areas for years,” he said.
Simply, Susman said Adagio will allow music students and teachers to interact with one another remotely, removing scheduling and steep financial restraints of music education.
