Piano Lab

The piano lab facilities at the Hodgson School are among the finest in the nation, combining quality instruments with cutting-edge computer applications. While the high quality instruments provide more authentic touch and tone, the true power of the lab is found in the interactive software and powerful presentation tools.  Each digital piano is connected via a MIDI interface to its own computer, allowing for two-way communication. This feature gives students the ability to use notation software, sequencing (recording) applications, and high-tech accompaniment programs. Many of these programs allow the students to work independently, while still receiving essential feedback and reinforcement.

The Yamaha Corporation recently featured the Hodgson facility in a national advertising campaign, Clavinova on Campus.
