Piano

The Piano is the main instrument we wanted to make My Note Games work for. Both my children play Piano. It’s a very popular instrument, and rightly so.

The best thing about the Piano is that it is so easy to play a note in tune. In my opinion, it is better for children, under the age of 8 to be playing the piano, where you can concentrate on being musical, rather than something more technically difficult – like the Trombone, say, where you are struggling to play a single note.

But there are always exceptions, of course, and eventually the solitary nature of the piano can become a drag.

As long as your piano is in tune with itself, you should be confident of hours of fun using My Note Games. 

I have come across a number of Pianos (maybe even a majority) which have not been tuned for some time and are either sharp or flat. That isn’t a problem because from the Toonr The Tuner game you can adjust the tuning of the app to the pitch of your piano.

However, if you have a piano where only odd notes are out-of-tune, it may not be possible to get good performance out of My Note Games. In this case, you should My Note Games as an excuse to get your piano tuned!
