Make Your Piano Lessons Work For You

By Ina Hunt


Learning how to play musical instruments such as the piano can help you see the world in a new way. Music will take on new meaning for you and you may even find a way to make money from it. However, even if you just do it for fun, piano lessons can be well worth the effort and money. They will keep your mind young and healthy and you'll soon find that sitting at the keyboard at the end of a long day is a fantastic way to relax and unwind.

Investing in formal lessons from a teacher has several advantages. Naturally one of these is that you'll learn the correct techniques for playing. In addition, you will be taught how to read and understand musical notation and theory. This is a skill that you can take with you even when you take up a different instrument later on.

One of the most important things to remember is that becoming a skilled pianist takes time. At first you'll learn very simple, basic pieces and this may be frustrating. However, these pieces will lay the groundwork for the more difficult ones you'll be playing later on. Like with everything else in life, you need to start small and be patient. A tennis player can't expect to win Wimbledon the first time round and in the same way, you can't expect to play a full piano concerto after only a couple of weeks.

A great thing about learning to play music is that it also teaches you discipline. You can't just sit back and wait for the magic to happen; you need to work for it. This involves practicing and practicing, preferably every day. The more you practice, the sooner you'll see some progress.

Part of each practice session should be set aside for scales. These are actually a great way to warm up. They help to loosen up and strengthen your hands and especially your fingers. In addition, they're a great aid in understanding how keys in music work.

It's not only scales that will help you gain understanding into the structure of music. An important part of music education is musical theory, which involves learning about the different symbols and terms as well as how a piece of music is put together. A good teacher will include theory tasks in your classes and will even give you homework assignments to do.

Your choice of teacher is very important. This is the person who will help you unlock the secrets of music and there should be a good rapport between the two of you. A great teacher isn't necessarily the most accomplished pianist but instead is the one who will push you, support you and encourage you to become the best you can be.

An absolutely essential trait to have when you learn the piano is the ability to persevere. There will be times when you become frustrated and want to throw in the towel. There will also be times when you just can't seem to make any progress. However, these times will pass, so just learn how to get through them without giving up and you'll be on your way to becoming a great pianist.
