Virtual Piano
Play piano online — 5 octaves with real piano sound, right in your browser. Click, tap or glide across the keys.
Fun to play. Even better to learn.
A virtual piano is a great start — but reading real notes is what turns curiosity into a skill. Notimo teaches you to read music with playful 5-minute lessons, instant green-or-red feedback and 1,200+ lessons from your very first note to real classical pieces.
What is a virtual piano?
A virtual piano is a playable piano keyboard that runs in your web browser. Notimo’s virtual piano covers five octaves (C2–B6) with realistic sampled piano sound — every key you click or tap plays a real recorded piano note, not a synthetic beep. It works on desktop, tablet and phone, with multi-touch support so you can play chords with several fingers.
Tips for playing the online piano
Drag your finger or mouse across the keys for a glissando. The middle C is labelled C4 — it’s the anchor note most beginner pieces start from. If you have a USB or Bluetooth MIDI keyboard, open the Notimo app: it detects your real keys in the browser and uses them for interactive lessons with instant feedback.
Play the virtual piano with your computer keyboard
On desktop, this online piano also works with your computer keys: the letter row A–L plays the white keys around middle C (A = C4), and the row above it plays the black keys. Press several keys at once for chords — every press triggers the same sampled grand piano sound as clicking or tapping.
Easy songs to try on the online piano
Ready for a first tune? These beginner songs use just a few notes around middle C: Alle meine Entchen, Backe Backe Kuchen, Ein Männlein steht im Walde, Es klappert die Mühle, Fuchs du hast die Gans gestohlen, Fuchs du hast die Gans gestohlen (Bass). Each song page shows the sheet music, key and tempo — and in the Notimo app you can play it with instant note-by-note feedback.
