Emedia Music Announces My Piano & My Guitar Lesson Programs

Apr 10, 2008

eMedia Music Corp. announces the release of My Piano, a fun and innovative program that introduces an exciting new way for kids ages 6 and up to learn how to play piano. The title features large-screen video demonstrations that guide children through the material, and uses interactive games and quizzes to help teach music notation and other basic concepts. My Piano shows kids that learning music can be fun and easy!

My Piano stars a playful animated character named Pam the Piano, who guides them through lessons written by former Juilliard School of Music instructor Irma Justicia, M.A. The program starts with the basics, such as going over proper hand position and names of notes, and moves on to playing songs and reading music. Games get children excited about learning while giving them a chance to build confidence by practicing their new musical skills. With over 100 lessons featuring dozens of popular songs, My Piano is the perfect way to introduce children to playing music!

My Piano includes other useful features that will have children playing right away. The animated keyboard shows them where to put their fingers while playing chords. When used with a MIDI keyboard, it will show them when they played incorrect notes and what they should have played instead. Song looping lets them repeat sections of songs, which makes practicing more difficult parts a breeze. Other valuable tools, such as a metronome and digital recorder, are also included. My Piano is the perfect way to introduce children to playing music!

My Piano will be available in April 2008 at computer and music retail stores nationwide at an estimated retail price of $29.95. The CD-ROM is a hybrid for both Windows (98/2000/NT/Me/XP/Vista) and Macintosh (OSX 10.2+).

eMedia Music Corp. also releases My Guitar, a fun and unique program that offers an exciting new way for kids ages 6 and up to learn how to play acoustic guitar. The program features multimedia lessons that guide children with video demonstrations, while creatively using interactive games to help with learning chords. eMedia's "My Music" series proves that "edutainment" is a great way to make learning fun and easy for kids!
