Subject: Re: Small Keyboard and Music Theory

I have a Yamaha PSR 260. Though not what I would call a pro keyboard, it's
great for a learning tool. Lottsa voices, different rhythm patches, MIDI
compatible, good amount of educational features such as a screen that shows
you what your playing in standard notation, great for learning how to read
music. It's 60 keys, good enough for learning harp theory. I use this
keyboard with all my harp students. I think I paid around $150 for it at
Costco, including stand and power supply. Highly recommended for a
learning keyboard.
