Going Beyond The Amateur Piano Barrier
The fundamentals of beginner piano can be learned in quite a short while. After about two or three classes with an individual piano tutor you ought to have learned the proper way to find every one of the notes are and as well how to play some basic tunes, perhaps even with two hands at the same time. I myself have made a video showing you how to play the basics of piano in less than 10 minutes.
The difficult part comes when you begin to play with both hands as one and you would like to advance further. For those who are learning with a classical piano teacher they’ll undoubtedly be given one or two of set pieces to learn. First you’ll have to be taught how to play the right hand part on its own. Practicing it time after time again until you can play it with no hesitation. After that you’re going to do the same with the part for the left hand. This is a bit more difficult for most people but after a while it gets a lot easier.
Now the fun begins… Placing it all together. You can compare that with riding a cycle. One day it will all just come together but until then, you may find the learning process a little slow.
If you’re being taught at home with a home study course or a dvd then you may nearly definitely be getting a grip on various musical styles or genres at the same time. The essentials of piano learning stay the same though. Learning how to play simple melodies and chords in the right hand and playing a basic bass line with the left. When it comes to mixing the left hand with the right you will not think it as complicated as brushing your hands whilst learning set classical pieces. You’ll be playing a ton faster by doing this.
To become somewhat more advanced in this style you’ll have to include a melody in your right hand with the chords which you might find pretty hard. Or instead sometimes you’ll be playing just the melody in the right hand and you will be mixing the bass line and the chords in the left. It is the mixing of the two things in one hand that you will find most hard of all but you will find that over time this method will allow you to move on considerably faster and will give you a solid background in piano playing.
Once you have become skilled then you will surely grow beyond the study course and will then gain from attending regular one on one piano tuition with a personal teacher.
