Well, remember that the Wii remote doesn't have very many buttons. What
you're doing here is just advancing through a preprogrammed set of notes
by pushing the buttons. You can add trills, but little more than that.

So, this game requires roughly the same level of creativity as playing a
player piano or a hurdy-gurdy.
