Concert Magic song arrangement types
Concert Magic songs are divided into three different arrangement types, each requiring a different level of
skill to be performed correctly.
Easy Beat
These are the easiest songs to play. To perform them, simply tap out a constant steady beat on any key on the keyboard.
Look at the following example for ‘Für Elise’. The Note Navigator indicates that a constant, steady rhythm should be maintained
throughout the song. This is the distinguishing characteristic of an Easy Beat song.
Fur Elise

Melody Play
These songs are also relatively easy to play, especially if they are familiar to the player. To perform them, tap out the rhythm of the
melody on any key of the keyboard. Singing along as the rhythm is tapped can be helpful.
Play ‘Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star’, for example. Follow the melody’s rhythm as shown below.

When performing fast Concert Magic songs, it is sometimes easier to tap two different keys with two alternating fingers in order
to play at a greater speed.
