If you’ve ever wanted to learn to
play piano, you are in good company. Many people list “Learn to play
the piano” on their New Year’s Resolution lists, or have it as a
goal for their future. However, not many people take the steps
necessary to learn how to play.
The sad part is that taking the
time to learn to play piano has many advantages. In all actuality,
with the right method, learning to play doesn’t take as much time as
most people expect.
I believe that everyone can benefit
from having some musical ability. The piano is one of the most
versatile instruments. With a few simple lessons, you can learn to
play:
Classical
Swing
Jazz
New Age
Rock/Pop
I can guarantee that you will never
get bored playing the piano. There is always a new style to try, or
a new song to master. Plus, sheet music is most likely available for
your favorite songs, which makes the process even more fun.
Playing the piano is seen as a very
intelligent skill, and with good reason. The skills you master when
you learn to play piano will help increase your hand eye
coordination and improve your left and right brain thinking. There
is always something new to learn when you learn to play piano.
Just by learning a few songs on the
piano, you’ll exercise your brain and gain a reputation as a
semi-genius!
One of the fastest and most
satisfying ways to learn to play piano is taking a chord-based
approach. Most piano teachers will teach from a classical method.
This includes those infamous scales, learning to read music, playing
Fur Elise again and again…..all the (boring) things we typically
think of when we picture piano lessons.
The classical method does work, but
it takes forever….which is why most teachers focus on this approach.
Think about it. If you were a teacher, charging $40 an hour, would
you go with a method that will take your students years to master?
Or would you choose a method that has them improvising their own
music and understanding musicianship within a few months?
I’d personally go with the option
that will guarantee me long-term clients who will pay me $40 a week
for years on end.
Learning to play by chords,
however, is better for the students and not the teachers. If your
goal is to learn to play piano, a chord-based approach to learning
will give you more satisfaction, more quickly than the classical
method. Your time-spent learning will be greatly reduced and, better
yet, you’ll actually understand how music is created.
So find a teacher, or website, that
focuses on chord-based teaching, and you’ll be able to finally reach
your perpetual “learn to play piano” goal.
