"Wii Music" uses the Wii Remote in a number of different ways to play instruments like the guitar, clarinet and violin.

"There are 50 pieces of music, 60 different instruments," David Young, of Nintendo, said. "So for each individual piece of music, there's almost an unlimited number of ways you can play it. Essentially, you're going to use different button presses and different motions using the Wii Remote and Nunchuk to play all these different instruments."

"Any time you play an instrument, it's going to stay within the chord structure of the piece of music," he said. "However, depending on how you want to that, you can stick strictly to the melody – moving just in time with the melody notes -- or you can add passing tones, improvise, throw different things in."

Players can even play drums, using the Wii Balance Board to control the bass drum and high hat.

"There's actually drum lessons that'll teach you four-way coordination that will teach you how drum rhythm patterns fit together and kind of teach you to play drums," Young said.

Up to four musicians can play at once, and you can record sessions and send them off to other friends with Wiis online.

"Wii Music" also has a few mini games, like "Wii Maestro."

"You're holding a baton and you're conducting an orchestra, and the whole idea is the orchestra is going to follow along with your rhythm and also with your movements," Young said. "If you want the orchestra to get louder, you have a more exaggerated movement in your conducting."

"Wii Music," a Wii exclusive, was released Oct. 20 and sells for $50.
