It’s huge, expensive, and the learning process requires years of investment. The Roli Piano system aims to make it more accessible. The colorful, light-up keyboard is educational and engaging; a stand-mounted camera watches learners’ fingers and gives personalized feedback like a live teacher would, and the accompanying app is full of popular music. “We asked: What if the piano itself could guide you, interact with you, and grow with you over time?” says Roli senior commercial director Luke Barton. “What if learning an instrument could feel more like play than practice?” These are independent reviews of the products mentioned, but TIME receives a commission when purchases are made through affiliate links at no additional cost to the purchaser.
