AirTurn's Christmas Savings and a Special Pianoteq Partnership


AirTurn Partners with Pianoteq, The Virtual Piano Program, for a Special 20% Discount

Pianoteq

If you've felt that digital pianos are inferior musical instruments due to their lack of color and expressivity, then you haven't experienced the Pianoteq revolution. Pianoteq, simply put, is one of the most amazing virtual piano programs on the market today. Pianoteq not only offers the widest range of touch, tone, and pianistic colors for a VST digital instrument, but also an incredible array of tools to customize the design of your virtual piano, as well as a robust set of recording options to capture the perfect piano performance. AirTurn is proud to partner with Modartt, the developers of Pianoteq, in offering a special 20% discount off of the purchase of Pianoteq to all customers who purchase any of our AirTurn Packages. This offer applies to past customers as well!

The Piano Podcast Video Review of the AirTurn AT-104


Dr. Mario Ajero, music tech guru from The Piano Podcast, has just posted a video review and demonstration of the AirTurn AT-104. His written review can be found in the Sept./Oct. issue of Clavier Companion.

In addition to a great overview of the AirTurn AT-104's ease of use and page turning capabilities, Dr. Ajero demonstrates an innovative use of Apple's Keynote program (the Mac version of PowerPoint) to view and annotate music on his MacBook computer.

You can read the full review article online, posted with permission from Clavier Companion Magazine.

A Blogger Asks: Is This the Future of Music Education?


James Levin, from www.SonicState.com, has just posted an interesting article about the ongoing "Clair de lune from Scratch" YouTube piano lesson series. Here's a small quote from the beginning of his article:

Hugh Sung's Youtube video series Clair de lune from Scratch is a great example of how social media can be used for music education.

So good, in fact, that it makes me wonder if this is the future of music education.

At first glance, Sung's video looks like just another Youtube "how to play" video.

Give it another look, though, and you'll find:

  • The series is incredibly deep, with 24 videos so far;
  • It's filmed from multiple angles, providing appropriate views for both his discussion of the music and his playing demonstrations;
  • Sung includes links with his videos to a free PDF copy of the music that you can download;
  • He makes use MusicReader, an application that lets him annotate the score as he discusses it;
  • He doesn't assume anything about your knowledge of music, so he explains things like clefs along the way; and
  • He's using the video comments section to respond to users questions, which range from technology questions to questions about interpretation.
Mr. Levin provides an opportunity for readers to leave comments on his article. What do you think? Is this an effective - and valid - way to learn to play the piano?
