The ONE Music Group announced its U.S. debut of The ONE Smart Piano and The ONE Light keyboard at select online and brick-and-mortar retailers. Recently named a CES 2016 Innovation Awards Honoree in the Smart Home product category by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA)TM, The ONE Smart Piano is the first and only Apple MFi-certified smart piano that works with an app to teach users to play.

The ONE Smart Piano’s wooden body comes in two colors – Matte Black or Classic White – and is equipped with 88 hammer-weighted keys and three foot pedals. The ONE Light is a portable keyboard that offers the same features as the smart piano, but with 61 backlit keys and the option to be battery powered. Available in two colors – Onyx Black and White Gold – The ONE Light is ideal for the mobile musician or people who don’t want to invest in a full-sized piano.

Created for people of all ages and levels, The ONE Smart Piano and The ONE Light connect with the Smart Piano app on any smartphone or tablet to provide three different ways to learn: video lessons, LED-guided sheet music and piano games. With a regularly-updated collection of more than 2,000 sheet music pieces, The ONE comes with access to thousands of classical pieces for free, as well as the latest pop hits for purchase.

“The ONE Smart Piano gives hope to people who have always dreamed of learning to play,” said Sandy Diao, Head of Growth at The ONE Smart Piano. “By making our piano available offline, we are providing customers an opportunity to test it before buying. We are confident that anyone who sits in front of The ONE Smart Piano will immediately fall in love with it.”

Currently available at several piano stores across America, such as: Bananas at Large, Music Village, Cooper Piano, Haight & Ashbury Music Center, and Hilton Piano. The ONE Smart Piano and The ONE Light will be available by Thanksgiving Day at SmartPiano.com, GuitarCenter.com and through Amazon.com. With the purchase of The ONE Smart Piano, Amazon Prime members will be able to utilize free two-day shipping and customer support. Shipping and returns will be dependent on each retailer’s individual policies.

Diao adds, “Retailers are finding that The ONE is not just an instrument, but part of the Smart Home ecosystem, an educational toy, furniture for a traditional home, a tool for music students and teachers, and a home entertainment system.”

The ONE Smart Piano will be officially recognized for its Innovation Award Honoree in the Smart Home category at CES Unveiled New York on Nov. 10. Products chosen as CES Innovation Honorees reflect innovative design and engineering in some of the most cutting-edge tech products and services coming to market. The ONE also will be displayed at CES 2016, which will run Jan. 6-9, 2016, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
