Abstract: A system for teaching a musical instrument includes an electronic keyboard. A computer is in communication with the electronic keyboard. A lessons and tracking server communicates over a network to the computer. The lessons and tracking server has a lessons module that serves up a lesson to the computer. The computer scores a student's performance and transmits a score to the lessons and tracking server. An associated method of providing instruction for a musical instrument includes the steps of connecting an electronic instrument to a computer. A user logs into a musical instruction web site with the computer. A lesson is selected from a pedagogical series of lessons. A portion of the lesson is played and scored.
