Cybercitals Result of Piano Lessons

What are Cybercitals?

Cybercitals are digital recordings students make during their piano lessons at Hillside Music. As students learn new songs, they are provided with the opportunity to record the songs on our digital Yamaha piano. We have computer software that enables us to record as the student plays. We then save the file as an MP3 file and upload it to our website. Anyone visiting our website can then listen to the student's "internet recital".

By providing the cybercital service to our students, we make it possible for family or friends living at a distance to enjoy and support the progress of students. While cybercitals are not required, it's an excellent opportunity for students to showcase their work.

How Cybercitals Work

1) Students choose a nickname to use online. Nicknames are used to protect the privacy of our students.

2) Students record their cybercital music at their piano lesson.

3) The song is uploaded to the website and identified by the student's nickname.

4) An announcement is made in the form of a Facebook update that a new cybercital song is available for the student (by nickname only).

4) Students are responsible for notifying family and friends of their nickname and song placement.
