That was cool. Thanks for posting this. I enjoy the piano on my iPhone and even more on the ipad. Brought back my wifi waiting for he 3G.

Flight of the Bumblebee on Magic Piano is easy - you just hit anywhere on the screen and it plays the next note correctly. Even I could do it.

you can see that he has a plug connected to the headphones jack, and he took it out when it finished

I just tried it. Sure the notes are right, but it sounded on youtube like he had the timing of the notes correct as well.

Excellent Post. The reason I bought an iPad was for music. C'mon DEVS!

Yeah I guess you need to have heard or played the song a few times before so that you can get the timing right.

I would have been much more impressed if he was able to play it on a piano keyboard via the iPad though (especially one of those awfully non-functional circular keyboards you get with Magic Piano).

Check out this video of a 2 month Baby Girl playing on the Magic Piano App. Sooo CUTE! Goes to show anyone can sound good on this app. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvsIZ5a5uQc&feature=youtube_gdata

I'm buying this app, it's only .99

That would be nice but the largest one I've played with only has 4 Octaves. I suppose you could pick a few measures that don't go outside those 4 Octaves...

Big meh here.

To me the timing didn't even sound right.
