4. 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 and the instrument plays itself.” 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 CL25 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 40 preprogrammed songs and tap any of the 88 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 CL25 piano.

Now let’s see how Concert Magic works.

Selecting a Song

The 40 Concert Magic songs are assigned to each of the 40 white keys, classified in five groups by song category such as Children’s Songs, American Classics, Christmas Songs.

All of the song titles are listed on page 25.

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