Music maestro AR Rahman launched the new Seaboard Rise by ROLI, a MIDI enabled controller keyboard, at his KM Music Conservatory. The students of AR Rahman’s music school will be performing on these new snazzy keyboards.
AR Rahman invited the six students, who are working with Manon Dave on the Seaboard Rise, to his studio on October 11 to give advice and tips on using the keyboard. The keyboard has been designed to respond to the softest touch.
The six students are writing music pieces using the new 25 keywave model. He also showed them sounds and techniques he likes.
Rahman also told students they need to have the right mindset to play the instrument and that it is about feeling their way through the sounds they have in their heads through the board.
Rahman also plans to give five of these keyboards to gifted students in his music school. On October 13, the students will perform their new music pieces at the KM Music Conservatory Auditorium.
