Yamaha Education Suite Explained!

Have you got your new Yamaha musical keyboard? If yes, you should try out the keyboard lessons in the Yamaha education suite.

So what is the Yamaha education suite? As the name suggests every Yamaha keyboard provides a set of keyboard lessons, across various topics and graded as per difficulty, to help you with your keyboard learning. If you are taking private lessons from a piano teacher, you can use the Yamaha keyboard lessons to reinforce important topics and concepts.

The Yamaha education pack will help you to learn important musical concepts like note and chord recognition, timing, and much more. It has exercises for playing left and right hand part separately as well as together at various levels of complexity. You can even set Repeat Points within the song so that you can practice a difficult section within the song repeatedly. To help you improve on your learning, the education suite has a grading mechanism as well to grade your performance on the various exercises.

Yamaha assigns version numbers to the education suite. Depending on your Yamaha keyboard model, you may have version 1, 2, 3 or version 4. Version 4 being the latest version and has a higher number of exercises compared to version 1, which was something that Yamaha had introduced many years back.

Irrespective of what version number you have, you should still explore the Yamaha Education suite. It is a convenient way of grasping important musical concepts. Even though the exercises are quite exhaustive, the Yamaha Education suite is not meant to replace your music teacher, and it should be seen as a supplement to your music lessons.
