Steps On Learning To Play Piano

By Angela Howard


The imagination that playing a baby grand is hard can make things tough to learn the skill. It is very simple and requires belief and the right attitude to acquire the skill. You will learn at the end of it all that it was a very simple process that anyone can learn as long as they have a positive mindset. Learning to Play Piano is all about the approach you have towards the process.

The first step is to be proverbial with music notes. When you look at them, they may give you an impression of being hard to understand but that is not the case. With invariable practice, you will learn them just as you learn the alphabet. Music is marked with the first alphabetical letters which describe the different tones and pitches of keys in music. These letters are A B C D E F G.

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.

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.

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.

Once you are done learning the sol-fa ladder, you need to go a notch higher. It is time to learn the simple songs that are easy to memorize. Such songs as Jingle Bells are easier to hit and can make the learning process more interesting. At this point, you need to learn the musical notes and their timing. You need to count each note on the music sheet.

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.

The initial measures of music normally have three E notes. It is essential you learn to hit them. They are usually quarter notes that are two and one-half note. You need to practice hitting them to the point that you can play them in sequence. Keep repeating the above steps and master how each step goes. Keep practicing and involve both your hands until you can comfortably hit any song.
