Concert Magic; Selecting A Song; Listening To The Song - Kawai CL35 Owner's Manual

5) 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 pianists wish it were quite that straightforward. Fortunately, KAWAI have devised
a method of playing the keyboard that is very simple, without even needing to strike the right keys.
With CONCERT MAGIC, absolutely anyone can sit at the CL35 digital piano and make real music - even complete
beginners who have never taken a piano lesson in their life. To enjoy performing with Concert Magic, simply select
one of the 40 pre-programmed songs and tap any key with a steady rhythm and tempo. Concert Magic will provide
the correct melody and accompaniment notes, regardless of which keys are pressed. With Concert Magic anybody,
young or old, can enjoy playing music from the moment they sit down at the CL35 digital piano.
