How To Use Technology To Accelerate Your Piano Learning

Some people might get turned off by technology when it comes to learning to play the piano. Nothing could be further from the truth. Technology can help you play faster and better in all areas of music.

o Perfect Your Pitch Pro - Perfect Your Pitch Pro is a simple but powerful game that you can play on your computer. It is for all levels. You will start off with the notes A, B, C, and D and are played various notes in which you must decide what was just played, using a multiple choice answer board. You get 10 points if you answer correctly first time, 6 points if it takes 2 guesses, 3 points if it takes 3 guesses, and 0 points if it takes 4 guesses. You can only progress from level to level if you score enough points. As you progress, the game gets gradually more difficult. You'll be amazed at how quickly, just by playing this game, you'll train your ear via self-correction without much effort and eventually you'll clock the game and be able to recognize all 36 notes on the chromatic scale (across the 3 center octaves).

o Jayde Musica Pro - learning to read music can be boring and monotonous. Jayde Musica Pro helps to bring the fun back to learning to read music. Watch as musical notes fly across the screen and do your best to identify them! This game goes from beginner to advanced levels, complete with high scores. You will find this to be the easiest, most effective way to learn how to read music. You will be amazed at how quickly you will enjoy using Jayde Musica.

o KeyCellerator - Keycellerator is fantastic for learning how to read music to an intermediate level. KeyCellerator takes over from where Jayde Musica leaves off so that you can take your music reading to a new level, while having incredible amounts of fun in the process! Soon you'll be sight reading even the most complex chord shapes with the same ease that you read a book. Who would have ever thought what a brilliant all round musician you'd be?

These are some of the tools that can help you learn to play piano faster and better. Use any or all of them whenever you have a chance. You'll see yourself ahead of those who don't.
