3 Character Traits For Aspiring Piano Players

By Jennifer Marie Anderson


Those who are well-versed in the art of piano-playing have certain traits to make note of. Suffice it to say, these are ones which carry over from one pianist to another, which the likes of music graduates will be unable to deny. Even though individuals in this field can easily point them out, those who are on the outside or are just learning may be lost. With this in mind, here are 3 traits which, in my view, are the ones most worth going over.

Music theory graduates, as well as other authorities, can attest to the importance of work ethic. Even though you may have the goal of learning about different genres, as well as the songs associated with them, you must possess the drive needed to learn. While it may seem like a lofty challenge, especially to those who are just starting out, this isn't an impossible endeavor to undertake. It's just a matter of how much work you're willing to put into this.

The inclination to practice is yet another trait to take into account. This is true for virtually any pianist, as he or she can play for multiple days per week, sharpening their skills along the way. Not only will they understand how to place their hands, relative to the keys, but the types of sounds that different keys can produce. Aspects like these are just a few which come with practice, and it's easy to see that it matters to former music students and other authorities in music.

Finally - and this may be the most important aspect - you must be dedicated to your craft. The best pianists are those which adore the piano, and cannot bear to be away from said instrument for an extended length of time. They simply want to learn more, by playing as much as they can and listening to the music of others so that they can receive inspiration. These are just a few ways in which dedication can be furthered, which is important when learning about any instrument.

To say that a pianist possesses numerous traits would be something of an understatement. Many others can attest to this sentiment, especially those who have learned how to play piano from the youngest ages possible. Learning how to play music should be fun, more than anything else, and it's easy to see that different characteristics can make the learning experience much easier. Once these are exhibited, the effectiveness of said learning experience will be hard to deny.
