Steps On Learning To Play Piano

By Angela Howard


The most distracting in learning to play a keyboard is the imagination of how long it will take you. Some people also imagine it is boring since you need to learn musical notes and how to interpret them. On the overall, you will realize it is all about attitude. In Learning to Play Piano, you must dedicate your time and eliminate the negative thoughts to make it an easy process.

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.

You also need to be comfortable with the baby grand keys. You need to learn their uses since they are not all the same. They are differentiated by color, and you will realize there are white and black keys on your musical instrument. The use of black keys is primarily to play the flat and sharp notes. They have been arranged in groups of threes and twos on your keyboard.

You need to identify the middle keys in your piano. Go through the entire length of your keyboard and get the set of five black keys in a group of three and two. Where you get the two black keys, the white key on your left is the middle C. If you go along either side you will realize all white keys to the left of two white keys will be a C.

Once you are done with the identification, you are now headed to knowing how to play Do-Re-Mi since it will be a great way to experience music at its basic level. When you will be playing this, you will be in a better position to learn notes. Practice the sol-fa notation and identify where it starts and ends. The sound Do correspond to letter C.

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.

Each note will show how long you will give it counts i. E. Press down the key while hitting the note. There are three basic notes that are used in music but there are more that are applicable to the study of music. You must learn how to identify the notes and the length that you can press them to give the desired 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.
