Learn Piano

By Andy Penbram


If you took keyboard lessons when you were a kid and now as an adult you're needing to start over, you'll still need to take beginners piano classes. Even if you have not sat at a keyboard before, the way you are taught will still be the same.

Of the multiple other ways of teaching there are lots of likenesses common to them all. Today, a lot of scholars use some sort of electronic keyboards, the way in which you are taught for keyboards is the same as it is for the piano. The purpose of the great majority of beginners is to be in a position to play a little in different styles, they would like to be in a position to perform classical, jazz, pop etc and most would love to be in a position to play by ear and also read a little music too. They may additionally want to learn how to accompany singers and other instrumentalist.

All of this may appear a bit bold for a total beginner but you really should know where you are going straight from the very start. You will find that in a very short time you'll be achieving most of the above.

I recently had to do a review for a home study piano course called 'Piano For All ', I liked the strategy they utilised for teaching. The techniques for teaching they used in this course impressed me a lot.You are then taught how to recognize those notes on the musical staff.Then they show exactly how to play a simple tune which uses all the fingers, as a leaning aid. The tune is written out so that you can see it and there is also a diagram of the piano keyboard to remind you where the notes in question are

This is only the beginning of the first lesson. Then you'll be shown 3 notes with which you're able to play a basic chord. You are given a simple rhythm to play the chord to. Next you are taught the way to play the first note of the chord with your left hand only an octave further down the keyboard which forms the bass line. You are taught a new rhythm to follow which includes the use of both hands and then all of a sudden you notice that you are really playing beginners piano and it sounds musical and isn't difficult in the least.

Play this chord for a couple of minutes then move on and learn 1 or 2 different chords. Once you know a few chords you can play them changing from one to another in order and you will discover you're playing real piano songs or accompaniments. Learning this way is fantastic for the confidence and leaves you desiring to learn more. The course carries on teaching more different rhythms, more chords and tunes and each time you are shown how this is written musically. All of what you play is outlined as keyboard diagrams and on the musical stave too. You will be playing real sounding piano or keyboards in far less time than you imagined.

This is really one of the best starter piano courses available now as it teaches you multiple styles including pop, classical, rock jazz and gospel. It also verses you in reading music as well as playing by ear.
