Program content description:
We developed a portable educational electronic keyboard, called the MusicStart Keyboard. Each child gets one to use in class. Students learn to read music and play familiar tunes through color, letter, and musical notation matching. They prepare for taking any musical instrument, and at the same time they learn step by step problem solving. All materials are provided. You can see a short 5min demo video at beginmusic.com or directly on youtube at https://youtu.be/G26xs7Ph97Y
I would be glad to answer any questions.
Training is straightforward.
