2) Performing a Concert Magic Song
Playing the Concert Magic song you’ve selected is very easy. Just begin tapping any key on the keyboard and the
song will play. Concert Magic plays the correct notes of the song, but you must provide the rhythm. Being familiar
with how a particular song sounds does make it easier, but watching the Note Navigator screen can help you play
a song that you’ve never heard before.
The Note Navigator provides an outline of the song’s rhythm that looks a lot like the real music. The dots (
x
) in the
display are the notes that you play. The spacing of the notes gives a clue to the timing (rhythm) of the notes. Notes
that are closer together are played faster; notes that are farther apart are played longer. Notes that are evenly
spaced are played evenly, and so on.
Up to four lines of music are displayed. After you’ve played past a note in the song, the dot becomes a cross (+)
to help you keep track of where you now are. When you get to the bottom of the screen, the top lines change to
show the next lines of music, as if you had turned the page. When you get to the end of the song you will see a
double line, and then the song will reset to the beginning.
