Using the Song Lesson Feature Quick Guide You can use the selected Song for a left-hand, right-hand, or both-hands lesson. Try practicing with these three Song Lesson types while referring to the music scores in the Song Book (page 11). Three Types of Song Lesson Lesson 1-Listen and Learn In this Lesson, you need not play the keyboard. The model melody/chords of the part you selected will sound. Listen to it carefully and remember it well. LISTEN Lesson 2-Timing In this mode, simply concentrate on playing the notes with the correct timing. Even if you play wrong notes, the correct notes shown in the display will sound. TIMING Practicing with Song Lesson 1 Select the desired Song for your lesson (page 26).
