Editorial Reviews:

eMedia Piano and Keyboard Method CD-ROM offers over 300 step-by-step lessons starting from the basics such as hand position, rhythm, and playing on black keys, followed by music notation, sight reading, scales, and more. Professional piano instructor Irma Irene Justicia, M.A., who has taught at the renowned Juilliard School of Music, guides you with over 70 videos with demonstrations of techniques with enhanced quality. Many of the videos include split-screen displays with close-ups for a clearer perspective. The Piano fingerings help teach you the correct fingering for each note. Personalized reports show your rate of progress, including scores for specific songs. High-quality, multi-track recorded audio is included for every song and exercise. Audio playback options include piano only, voice only, and full audio including both piano and voice. Slows down the audio to any tempo, while the Animated Keyboard shows song fingering as the music plays. You can play along and learn at the pace best suited to your skill level. MIDI playback options let you select left or right hand only, or a tick metronome track to play along with. Colorful variable-speed MIDI accompaniments are also available and can be fun to play along with. When using an electronic MIDI-compatible keyboard, you can get specific feedback on note and rhythm mistakes made while playing to help you get it right the next time. Clicking on an individual feedback balloon brings up a keyboard showing you exactly what mistake was made and what should have been played. Also, an overall percentage score summarizes how well you did on the song. With the click of a button, you can get suggestions as to which Voice to use on your MIDI keyboard to get the best sound for the song. Interactive review and ear training screens help reinforce new concepts and develop your ear. This feature allows you to compare your recordings with the instructor's version, fine tune you

Summary: Bummer - doesn't work with Vista
Comment: Does not work. Gave 2 stars because at least the company returned my call and took time to explain that if you have Vista you have to use a Quicktime version from five years ago (!). I did that and it worked... but then you have QT complaining constantly AND a lot of websites don't work. Oh, it also doesn't work if you have ITunes, so have to delete that (and all you tunes) from your computer. Sheesh!

Summary: piano and keyboard method v2
Comment: this makes it easy enough for a young person to do the work, but it takes an adult to supply the structure and to explain some more intricate issues.
