The Way To Master The Piano

By Andy Penbram


You will have come upon some home study courses for piano or keyboards if you have been trying to find information regarding how to master the piano. Or perhaps you have thought of trying a piano tutor who will give you private lessons. Whichever class you are in the basics on how to learn to play the piano stay the same.

There are several points the piano student should take into account:

Get the basics right

We always need to start with the basics. You must discover what you can about the instrument like where the notes are, the pedals, how the keys work and the like. If you might learn a bit of basic theory of music and also a bit about the best way to read music so you'll be properly prepared. You need to find a good piano teacher or perhaps even a home learning course that may be found on the Web, then ensure that you will have satisfactory time to put in a little bit of daily practice and you ought to be set to go.

Choosing the right piano music to practice is important

Its important that you get hold of some good piano music to practice. You won't become inspired and will not advance as a piano player if you've selected practice pieces that are above your current level. If you can pick short memorable pieces to practice then it is going to be a lot more straightforward to get them sounding good, especially if they're short enough for you to memorize. Try studying a piece or two by ear, i.e. Listening to some music time after time and making an attempt to play it yourself without music. You could try working out the chords or the tune or both. Hearing a song repeatedly again and then making an attempt to learn it on the piano will act as a great help to training your ear which should come in extremely handy later.

This will get troublesome

As you progress you will find that there comes a point when it will become difficult and testing. As you advance from total beginner piano level to intermediate then the learning curve can become quite steep. There'll be moments when this can become depressing. If you find this taking place you must just keep practicing knowing that it is a normal part of the method. Don't worry if you become bogged down and feel you're not making any progress as this is a normal part of the process, rest assured that subconsciously you are learning and one day soon it will just all click as your brain and your hands all of a sudden start to cooperate.

Add an individual touch to it

You can add your own individual touch to a the some of the pieces you are learning by changing it a touch just as when you hear two artists performing different versions of the same song. Attempt to play the piece in a adventuresome style. If you can have a great time and experiment a little then you will find the learning process will become even more easy. You may potentially need to learn boring pieces and play unexciting exercises during your learning period. Try to persist and not quit. You need to get through this beginner piano period before it is possible to progress onto more fascinating and adventurous playing.
