A full-color set-up poster, videos, and extensive help demos get you off to a smooth start. You'll be up and playing in minutes!

The Piano Wizard Method combines the way in which people naturally learn, with the basic components of piano playing, to create a stress free, fun experience that consistently proves successful for both children and adults. This game based method teaches Tempo, Timing, Fingering, Note Names and Reading of Notation while practicing with either right, left or both hands. Our method advances the student from playing a video game to reading music.

Step 1, Play the Game: Just hit the game objects at the right time and you’re playing a song! The game objects rise from the bottom to the top along a corresponding colored line that matches the color code of the key being used. The key is pressed when the game object reaches the matching key of the piano graphic at the top of the page and the game object changes as the note is played.

Step 2, Rotate the Game: The game rotates and you begin to see how written music is organized. This allows the student to quickly adapt to the horizontal nature of music notation and assists in coordination by keeping the right hand corresponding to the game objects on the top of the screen and the left on the bottom.

Step 3, Play Colored Notes: Game characters become color-coded notes on a musical staff, taking you into the world of real musical notation. Notes and rhythm become second nature. This transition allows the student to keep the same key matching color scheme while learning musical notation.

Step 4, Read Real Music: The colored notes change to black on a musical staff, making the transition to reading actual musical notation fun and effortless! The student is now playing and reading music.

• The Tempo of the game is adjustable and can be set to the student's skill level.
  
  
• Timing is learned by pressing keys at the appropriate time while the symbols are between the green and red lines on the piano key graphic at the top of the page. This is also adjustable to the student's skill level.
  
  
• The finger numbering option places the number of the finger of each hand on the game object (or note) as it moves toward the piano keys graphic. This allows the student to learn proper fingering for each key as they learn new songs.
  
  
• The Note Name option places the name of the note being played next to the game object (or note symbol) as it moves towards the piano keys graphic.  This allows the student to learn the name of the note as they press the corresponding key.
  
  
• The most important aspect of the Piano Wizard Method™ is that the student is rewarded with applause at the completion of each level, regardless of score.  This makes learning a positive, fun experience.
