Practice sessions to suit them (and you)
Between school, clubs, and homework, kids lead hectic lives—which makes it tough to find time for piano practice. While playing an acoustic piano can disturb others, the HP700 series lets your children either reduce the volume or plug in headphones and concentrate on learning piano while family life goes on around them. It’s the flexible solution that lets them play any time they like.
Simple operation gets them playing in seconds
Open the lid and the piano is ready to play—no need to press the power button. The controls are directly in the line of sight, so kids can glance down, find what they need, and focus on their practice. The HP704’s music rest is also angle-adjustable to match your child’s sitting height, letting them get comfortable and dive into the music.
Sounds like a concert hall even through headphones
Headphones are especially useful for young musicians, letting them practice at any time of the day or night. Thanks to the Headphones 3D ambience feature, they’ll experience the immersive acoustic effect of playing in a real concert hall without disturbing anyone else. And with the volume limit function, you can set the maximum volume of the phones or onboard speakers to ensure their hearing is always protected.
Follow your child’s progress on your mobile device
The Piano Every Day app automatically tracks your child’s daily playing, giving you instant updates on their progress. It’s a great way to bond with your child over their new hobby while taking part in their musical journey and encouraging them to keep going.

Timeline lets you check the tunes your child has played and view how long they’ve practiced. Every note of their practice session is automatically recorded, so you can listen back to their performance using your smartphone or tablet.
Challenge your child with the One Week Master program
It’s great for young musicians to have targets, and the One Week Master program helps your child learn a piece of music in just seven days. With the HP700’s song collection spanning many genres, they’re sure to find something that inspires them, while you follow their progress using the app.
Onboard tutorial features for ear training and score reading
For your child to improve, it’s important that they practice between piano lessons. And with the HP700 series, that doesn’t have to mean boring exercises. With a variety of built-in tutorial features, the HP700 series makes learning so much fun that you’ll never have to persuade your child to practice.
Learn piano scales and rhythmic sensibilities
The Do Re Mi lesson feature substitutes the usual piano notes with spoken phrases (do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do), allowing your child to learn scales by singing along with the onboard tunes. To make it even easier and more fun, use the Piano Every Day app to display the digital music score on your smartphone or tablet. In addition, learning to play in time to a beat is the first step towards your child performing music with others, and the HP700’s built-in metronome provides an essential tool to help develop their sense of rhythm.
Split the keyboard and speed up learning
When your child sits alongside you—or their piano teacher—you can divide the keyboard into left and right areas, so that two people can play in the same note ranges. It’s a great tutorial aid that makes it easy for your child to copy what you demonstrate. It also provides a convenient way for two children to practice at the same time.
Stay inspired with over 380 onboard songs in every style
When your child finds the musical genre that sparks their passion, practice sessions become a pleasure.

No need to send off for a music book. Using the Piano Every Day app, it’s simple to browse over 70,000 digital music scores via Sheet Music Direct. There’s a wide range of child-friendly music scores to explore, including chart hits, movie soundtracks, and more.
The professional piano they’ll play for life

But with the HP700 series, they’ll be supported along every step of their musical journey. Authentic tones and a welcoming feel provide first-timers with great sound and the inspiration to keep going. And as their skills develop, these pianos really keep up.
