Is It possible To Learn A Musical Instrument On Your Own

By Patrick J Keene


That's the question , is it possible to learn an instrument with no formal coaching at home? Well this is the way many of the greats began. Whether it's blues or rock musicians, or hip-hop front-runners outlining their own sound with some home clobber, it can be done. In fact it could be the only real way to develop an individual sound. So if by day you're a SEO consultant by night you can be a blues musician.

To offer you help you can download some music courses from the web. There are countless guitar distance learning courses. Plus there is video coaching courses, which in my viewpoint are the absolute best. There's no substitute than to watch someone else play an instrument and tell you precisely what they went and did. You then can copy the process. As they say practice is the key.

There are loads of courses like JamPlay and Guitar tricks that teach in this style. If you need to learn something more difficult like a violin it may be a little tricky without some basic formal training. Unless you want to join Alexander McCall Smith's Truly Dreadful Orchestra, whom are famous for letting musicians of all capability, horrible and great play in their orchestra.

If you would like to be taught how to play the decks and dj; if that can be presumed as an instrument, and to my mind it is if played properly, you can definitely do this at home.

This may develop your skill and style. If you're into scratch djing there's plenty of videos that can teach you the basic scratch sounds, but after that you need to work on developing your own unique take on them. All the famous dj's whether or not they be hip hop, house, techno or electronic style dj's mix beat mixing "which is blending music in time with the beat, and scratching. There's little more exhilarating than watching a scratch dj who can also juggle beats and create new soundscapes.
