Piano Lesson Package for Synthesia
Dec-23-2011
Artur Gajewski has created a pretty comprehensive Piano Lesson Package. On top of including 60 lessons with printable sheet music, an eBook is included covering a wide variety of topics along with guidance for each lesson.
The lesson package takes advantage of Synthesia's finger number hint feature, so you'll be able to see which finger to use in each lesson, right on the falling notes.
It's definitely worth checking out. Head over there and download the sample lesson.

Nov-07-2011
With keyboard navigation, huge improvements to the sheet display, and dozens of quality of life improvements, Synthesia 0.8.2 is the biggest release ever.

The sky is the limit.
Dramatically Improved Sheet Music
Follow along smoother than ever with new note and measure highlighting. Never lose your place with an easier to follow page-turn effect.
Synthesia's sheet music now supports key signatures, time signatures, staccato notes, crowded notes, better clef detection, smarter spacing, crisper staff and bar lines, and still more.
Find Songs Faster Than Ever
The Song Library saw some major upgrades. Better search, category search, simpler management, and colorful flags you can sort by are just the beginning.
