Becoming A Master Of Music By Following Piano Instruction

By Sonya Riley


Music is just the greatest thing. It makes people around the world dance and sing, to get together and have a wonderful time. Some it helps to concentrate and create new things, to some it's the source of workout-motivation. One thing is clear: music belongs to every culture on earth. Everyone sings, dances and plays their instruments. If you too want to be transformed from basic listener into music-maker, follow these piano instruction for starters!

Taking lessons is not a bad idea. In fact they are quite necessary if you dream about becoming a true master. In many areas there are special music schools that provides lessons. There are both public and private of them, but you might need to pass a test to get in. It sounds scary, but the judges are usually really encouraging and friendly. And to make that clear: you don't need to be an experienced musician. Just a little singing or a simple piece with some instrument will do the trick.

Other, maybe even better option is to look for a teacher online or through a local newspaper. These private teachers will usually charge you for an hour instead of year, so it's possible to take just a few lessons. However, it is also other ways to learn besides the traditional lessons. Internet has brought countless learning opportunities with it; you just have to know a little something about music and your instrument first.

The notation system, as well as your instrument, consists of ongoing octaves. These octaves always start and end with the same note. C-major for instance: C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C. There's actually very logical system for naming the different C:s and D:s etc., but most of the time you here people just talking about the 'lower D' and 'really high C'.

In the middle-section of your instrument is the C-major you'll be using the most in the beginning. C, which is a white key can be easily found by focusing on the black keys. There are two black keys together, then a gap, then three together and a gap again. Then the system goes all over again. C is always the white key, that touches the 'group of two' on the left side. It's followed by D, E, F, G, A, B and C again, all on the white keys.

Now place your right hand's thumb on the C you just found. Your other four fingers fall naturally to the next white keys. Start on the key E whit your middle finger and play: E D C D E E E D D D E G G, take a rest and continue: E D C D E E E D D E D C.

If that seems difficult, you can try colors instead of letters or create your own method, whatever works for you. Draw your own notes! Improvising or playing by ear is not a bad idea either.

If you managed to play the song, you noticed that it was 'Mary had a little lamb'. These piano instruction helped you to get started, now keep up practicing and some day you will be a true artist. Video-tutorials and other useful material can be easily found on the net.
