Why You're Never Too Old For The Piano Lessons For Adults Buckhead GA Teachers Offer

By Carol Powell


If you love music, and have always wanted to learn how to play a musical instrument, it's not too late just because you are an adult. Learning is a great option for seniors with extra time on their hands and musical interests they have never explored. Experts say there are a lot of reasons adults excel, and find learning easier, when they decide to take up an instrument. You might be surprised at how quickly you become proficient at the piano lessons for adults Buckhead GA instructors offer.

One reason instructors like to see mature individuals in their studio is because they are happy to be there. They aren't forced into the studio by a mother who is convinced her child is a prodigy in the making. Grown ups take practicing more seriously than most kids and are willing to practice longer hours. They tend to be much more enthusiastic about the experience and look forward to each new lesson.

Playing an instrument is creative, and creativity is the product of a person's right brain. Using the left side of the brain is important as well though. The brains of grown ups are mature. They have more developed critical thinking skills. They have a better ability to understand what the composer's goal was and can analyze material much easier than youngsters. In order to play convincingly, you need both sides of your brain.

Complex concepts are easier for grown people to understand. There are a lot of children who can master playing the right notes and memorizing compositions. What most children lack is a real understanding of the underlying meaning behind the notes they are playing. They don't have the maturity or experience to instill what the composer was trying to convey into their music. Just playing the notes doesn't create the passion, anger, sorrow, or joy inherent in a piece of musical art.

Children have notoriously short attention spans. Instructors can only keep their attention so long. They often have to adjust, or shorten, sessions that become unproductive.

Most grown ups, in contrast, are mature enough to pay attention to the instructor for the whole lesson. They are able to take advice and understand how to apply it when they are practicing for the next session. An adult is usually willing to practice for longer periods of time, which is one reason they seem to catch on so fast.

There are other practical reasons adults make better musical students than kids. For one thing most of them can read. They can recognize numbers, note names, and understand fingering exercises. Grown ups, who are interested enough, can study musical theory and history, which adds to their appreciation of the art.

Grown people have stronger hand and finger muscles than children. Their hands are usually bigger. Unlike violins and some other stringed instruments that come in different sizes to accommodate little hand spans, pianos only come in one size. They are meant for adult hands as are most of the composition pianists play. Most adults can reach the pedals, which is something many children have trouble doing.
