If your children are hankering to learn the piano or keyboard and want to get a head start, or perhaps you don’t have a piano at home for them to practice on, this PC CDROM could be ideal.

This great interactive piece of software allows users to gain valuable tuition for learning all the major keyboard chords. Excellent 2D and 3D graphics highlight the keys of the keyboard, and the chords are represented both visually on screen and audibly. Additionally, it shows the correct fingers to use for each chord and as they’re played, you can hear whether they’re correct or incorrect.

The software can be used by those who’ve never played a keyboard before, as well as children wanting to gain extra insight, knowledge and confidence with their musical abilities. It’s best suited to those aged seven and over and offers good value for money.
