About eMedia Piano for Dummies

Discover the enriching world of piano with the eMedia Piano For Dummies Level 2 software, an electronic download designed for Mac users. This advanced tutorial is expertly crafted to elevate your piano skills beyond the basics, offering a seamless continuation from the original Piano For Dummies course. With 150 engaging lessons, you'll delve deeper into the realm of music, extending your keyboard hand positions beyond middle C, mastering new chords and scales, and refining your piano techniques under the guidance of Irma Irene Justicia, M.A., an esteemed piano instructor with a pedigree from the prestigious Juilliard School of Music.

The eMedia Interactive Feedback technology sets this software apart from video-only courses, providing an interactive learning experience that accelerates your progress. As you play, the software listens and highlights correctly played notes in green, offering instant validation and ensuring a faster learning curve. The innovative Note and Finger Tracker tools display the notes you play both as music notation and on the Animated Keyboard, allowing for immediate correction and fostering your ability to read music more efficiently.

Embark on a musical journey with a rich selection of over 50 classical, pop, and folk songs, including timeless pieces by Billy Joel, Elton John, and Bob Dylan, as well as classical compositions by Mozart, Joplin, and Beethoven. These diverse tracks not only enhance your repertoire but also make the learning process thoroughly enjoyable.

The software's comprehensive curriculum is organized into six chapters, covering essential topics such as triads, the G and F positions, transposition, scales, arpeggios, and even a brief exploration of Western music history. The Animated Keyboard vividly displays color-coded fingerings in sync with the music, making it simple to follow along and perfect your technique.

Over 30 high-quality piano lesson videos, now available in full-screen size, feature professional instruction from Irma Irene Justicia, M.A., who demonstrates techniques and offers insights to improve your playing. Interactive Evaluation Feedback, when used with a MIDI-compatible keyboard, provides detailed feedback on note and rhythm mistakes, helping you perfect each song.

The software includes interactive review and ear training screens to solidify new concepts and sharpen your musical ear. It also offers piano fingerings and guitar chords for each song, enabling collaborative practice sessions with friends learning guitar.

Experience the full audio for all songs and exercises, with playback options that cater to your learning preference, whether it's piano only, voice only, or a full audio mix. The variable-speed MIDI feature allows you to slow down the music, ensuring you can learn at a comfortable pace, while colorful MIDI accompaniments add a fun dimension to your practice.

Track your progress with personalized reports, and utilize the digital metronome and recorder to refine your timing and review your performances. With eMedia Piano For Dummies Level 2, you're not just learning to play the piano; you're cultivating a lifelong passion for music.
