The iPad in Concert

· by · News

The iPad isn’t just a casual consumer device; it works great for professionals, too, including professional musicians. Pianist Lang Lang proved that recently in San Francisco when he played Flight of the Bumblebee on his iPad.

Lang Lang is known for his high-energy and theatrical playing style, and he demonstrated that perfectly by bringing his iPad on stage and in concert.

Nice bit, but I can do that, too. I can also play Fur Elise, Moonlight Sonata, Final Fantasy Prelude, Toccatta in D Minor and a dozen other songs perfectly on my iPad. Simply launch Smule’s “Magic Piano” app, choose “songbook” from the menu, select a song, and whack away on the screen.
