Piano Wizard is a breakthrough technology that combines the fun of a video game with the fundamentals of playing piano. Your kids can start playing piano just in minutes not even realizing that they are learning the very essentials of music theory fast and easy, which is tremendous educational value.

The secret to musical mastery is to enjoy your practice. Piano Wizard turns practice into a joyful fun experience instead of tedious painful chore that many of us remember.

Musical notation is hundreds years old. It’s very complicated, confused and intimidated for many of us especially for kids. The theory is not about playing music – that’s exactly what stops so many kids from playing musical instruments and prevent them from being able to appreciate the music.

Fortunately it can be reduced to “hit the right note at the right time”. Get the kids playing first and let them get curious about how to express themselves in musical notation later.

Piano Wizard is a revolutionary system that allows even 4 year old child play Beethoven. It makes first few years of playing piano fun and not torture. Besides it builds a solid foundation for traditional music instruction backed up with your kids desire to learn more. It’s like training wheels for piano.

Piano Wizard is changing the way people learn to play music. The core concept is easy and can be explained in the following 5 steps.

Step 1:

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:

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:

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:

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.

Step 5:

Take it to a real piano with the Piano Wizard Academy! This is playing from the sheet music at a real piano. This is where the true strength of the Piano Wizard Academy is found, taking it to the piano with the “Art of Music”: Phrasing, Posture, Dynamics and Technique. The Tutorial DVD and Songbook lessons guide you through the process.
