Playing with Concert Magic

TUTORIAL

4. PLAYING WITH CONCERT MAGIC

The great German composer Johann Sebastian Bach once said, “Playing the keyboard is simple. Just strike the right keys at the right time.” Many people wish it were that simple. The reality is very different of course. However, there is a way to make playing the keyboard very simple. You don’t even have to strike the right keys thanks to Concert Magic.

With CONCERT MAGIC, absolutely anyone can sit at the CA piano and make real music… even if you’ve never taken a piano lesson in your life. To enjoy performing by yourself, you have only to select your favorite piece from 176 preprogrammed songs and tap any of the 88 piano keys with a steady rhythm and tempo. CONCERT MAGIC will provide the correct melody and accompaniment notes, regardless of which keys you press. Anybody, young or old, can enjoy CONCERT MAGIC from the moment they sit down at the CA piano.

Now let’s see how CONCERT MAGIC works.

SELECTING A SONG

The 176 Concert Magic songs are assigned to each of the 88 piano keys, two songs for each key. There are two banks of songs, Bank A and Bank B. Each bank contains 88 songs.

The songs are also classified in eight groups by song category such as Children’s Songs, American Classics, Christmas Songs.

All of the song titles are listed on page 76 in the reference section of this manual. To make it easier to find which song is assigned to which key, there is a key strip that can be placed between the end of black keys and the front panel. The key strip indicates song categories, and note names.

To select a song, press the key to which your desired song is assigned while holding down the CONCERT MAGIC button.

A01	The LCD display shows you the song number and
Twinkle Twinkle	abbreviated song title.

You have selected a song in Bank A. To select a song in Bank B, press the same key again. The LCD display shows you another song title with “B” at the beginning. Repeatedly pressing the key switches between the two banks.
