It seems like such a complicated instrument to learn, but well worth it i think. I only have a KEYBOARD, it’s Yamaha. Learning this will enable me to play the piano though, right?
And, can I really learn how to read music from books? It seems complex! I need to teach myself and I know there are books out there, but do they really work?? Thanks!
I started taking piano lessons when I was 7 years old, I’m now 15. I’m not as good as I had expected I would be, but I’m good. All it takes is practice, and lots of it. The first couple years I had difficulty understanding how to read the scores, and I mostly played by ear. But now I can read scores very easily. It may seem complex at first, but it’s really quite simple. I didn’t have a piano when I first started and I think I remember correctly that I didn’t get one until I was about 10 years old. Before that I had only used a keyboard.
People who teach themselves how to play an instrument often go too fast. Just take your time and start with something suuuper simple. And than gradually build your way up. Just don’t go to fast, this can take a few years.
