Music Theory Made Visible with the
Visual Piano System
​
The Visual Piano System is a visual music theory framework that helps musicians understand scales, chords, modes, improvisation and composition by revealing the hidden patterns of music instead of relying on memorisation.
​​Whether you're learning scales, chords, improvisation or composition, the System helps you see music differently.
​Instead of relying on memorisation alone, musical concepts are transformed into colours, shapes, patterns and visual relationships that are easier to understand and remember.
These visual music theory symbols, known as Gliphs, provide the knowledge required for scales, chords, composition and improvisation.
It's a visual music theory framework that ignites your creative piano playing.
The Visual Piano System is a growing ecosystem of apps, courses, books and learning resources designed to help musicians learn visually.
