Keyboard instruments you can play online
Keyboard instruments map naturally to a computer keyboard: each key on your laptop plays a note, so you can play melodies and chords straight away.
Use the on-screen keys or your keyboard, play chords with several keys at once, and record a melody to download. A good place to start if you are new to music.

Frequently asked questions
Can I play piano with my computer keyboard?
Yes. Rows of letter keys map to piano keys, so you can play melodies and chords without a MIDI keyboard. Mouse and touch work too.
Do I need a MIDI keyboard?
No. Everything works with a normal computer keyboard, a mouse or a touchscreen.
