TLDR: The Piano, Guitar, and Ukulele for Beginners Software Bundle can help even first time players pick up and master three instruments through insightful video lessons led by experts.
Imagine walking out on stage and sliding behind a piano to start playing your favorite song to an enthusiastic crowd. When the song reaches your first chorus, you get active, moving out from behind the piano to grab a guitar and take the performance to the next level. Then, when you want to go intimate and a bit more whimsical, you throw your audience a curve by switching to the ukulele.
For those with a dream of being a true multi-instrumentalist musical threat, you can get schooled in all three instruments with The Piano, Guitar and Ukulele for Beginners Software Bundle ($29.99, over 90 percent off, from TNW Deals).
Even if you’ve never played an instrument before, these three courses can lay the foundations for getting started, featuring self-paced, interactive video training that helps to demystify the art of playing music.
The Starter Piano Keyboard Lessons makes keyboard training fun. Starting with basics like hand positioning and note reading, this collection of 50 step-by-step lessons is led by piano teacher and instructor at the famed Julliard School of Music Irma Irene Justica. In this training, players learn the techniques to immediately start playing songs, with live recorded audio, variable-speed MIDI keyboard tracks, and colorful MIDI accompaniments to help.
Students also get instant feedback, with interactive evaluation of your playing like feedback balloons that listen and point out any errors in your notes or rhythm. The training even comes with a digital metronome to help set your speed, a digital recorder to save your recordings, and an animated keyboard to display color-coded keys as the music plays.
Your training progresses with Starter Guitar Lessons, where students learn under the tutelage of professional guitar player and instructor Kevin Garry. After understanding the basics of holding, stringing, and tuning the guitar, you’ll quickly start playing your first guitar chords and establish a strumming pattern.
Then you can translate that training with some subtle differences of its own to your Starter Ukulele Lessons as well. Professional ukulele player and instructor Tim Carey guides through 25 interactive lessons, including how to string and tune a ukulele, how to play your first chords, as well as how to change chords easily.
The Piano, Guitar, and Ukulele for Beginners Software Bundle can take you from novice to serious musician in no time. Right now, you can save almost 40 percent off the cost of all three training collections and transform yourself into a skilled instrumentalist for just $29.99.
