Steps On Learning To Play Piano

By Angela Howard


Music is a very important part of our life but there are situations that may discourage us from getting the necessary skills. Individuals may make assumptions that playing a keyboard, for instance, is boring and a lengthy process. However, these are only mannerisms that are not necessarily true. It is all assumptions that hinder Learning to Play Piano and getting rid of them will hasten the process of learning.

To make it, you need to have a step by step process of learning. Start by getting familiar with the music notes. Always stay positive and do not assume they cannot be learned. Just as you learned from A to Z, then they can be learned too. They are eight, which makes it even simple. They are denoted A B C D E F G according to pitches and tunes they produce when played.

The next step is to become familiar with the piano keys and now what their purpose is. You will notice there are black and white keys. The black keys are shorter than the white longer keys. The black ones are used to play sharp and flat notes and are significantly seen to be in alternating groups of twos and threes.

The baby grand is manufactured and arranged in a specific way. It all begins in the middle. The central five black keys have a significant importance to the way the keyboard is arranged. On the duo group, the left white input represents C which is the sound Do in the sol-fa notation. All other keys with a similar location are denoted the same and between two subsequent similar letters are eight keys.

After doing the identification, we need to get into serious business now. This is the stage of learning how to hit the sol-fa notes. They are eight in number and represent the different notes that are represented in music. It is imperative to learn how to transfer the skill to a more practical sense and make it more interesting. You will be more accustomed to hitting the ivories.

Congratulations, at this time you are better versed with the basics of a baby grand. It is time you took it a step higher to test your potential. You can test whether you can be able to hit the simple songs. An example is the Jingle Bells that has been commonly adopted as a common song learners begin with. Acquire the skill of recognizing the notes and hitting them appropriately.

Knowing the skills of timing and the length a note should be played is very important. You must know that there are three main notes that are commonly used when playing music. However, they are not limited to three. Other notations exist. Learn the length to give a notation and the timing to play the next note.

You need to have the knowledge of playing the first three E notes that are commonly found at the beginning of a music piece. They comprise two a quarter notes and one single note. An orderly play is an important aspect of memorizing a sequential play. Keep playing until you gain the ability of simultaneously using two hands.
