Tombooks, creator of interactive sheet music, announced the expansion of its partnership with Kawai to North America and Oceania
This collaboration enhances musical practice and performance, allowing musicians to play along with professional recordings. Kawai customers in the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand will receive three months of complimentary access to the Tomplay app upon registering a select Kawai piano or digital piano. Tomplay premium offers over 80,000 songs with backing tracks across all genres and difficulty levels.
The partnership aims to enhance the musical journey for musicians and educators across these regions. Tomplay's platform features interactive scores that scroll automatically on-screen, creating an interactive experience. Users can adjust the tempo, loop passages, train left and right hands separately and self-record, making playing piano at home more engaging.

‘At Kawai, we are dedicated to not only crafting exceptional pianos but also providing our customers with the tools to unlock their full musical potential. Our partnership with Tomplay connects Kawai owners to cutting-edge technology, helping them learn and make music more effectively and quickly.
