How to play piano

In this article I will be writing about how you should be playing the piano in a way that is comfortable. When playing the piano you need to have a good posture, this is because you don’t want to be in a slumping position as you’ll no doubt find this uncomfortable.

So what you should be doing is –

  • Keeps your shoulders pulled back, so they should be lowered
  • Put your stool near the piano, so you shouldn’t be slumping or reaching for the keys.

Hand positioning

When pressing the keys on a piano, you need to use the pads of your fingers. So DON’T flatten your fingers as you’ll be slower when it comes to playing notes. So in summary your hands should be in a curl type position.

I’ve done this article as it’s essential that piano beginners know about this, you don’t want to be having soreness or discomfort when playing the piano, so if you’re a piano beginner who’s just starting out then do yourself a favour and do this correctly.

Piano Playing Tips

Piano players love improving their memory so that they can play songs without the score in front of them. In this article I will provide you with tips so that you can improve your memory.

I always recommend this for improvement. – You should firstly play a piece that you can play easily without the score in front of you.

You now need to split it into 7-14 bars so that it’s shortened. Your aim now is to create a section which can be repeated or looped and you need to make sure it sounds reasonable.

While playing your piece, try and look away from the printed score in front of you whenever you feel like you can. Repeat this for as many times as you can until you can do it without thinking, then move onto the next bar.

As you are practicing this, you can put together the bars so that everything flows, have a couple of tries at this, you’ll get there in the end.

Practice this everyday and you’ll soon start to easily improve and before you know it you won’t need that printed score in front you.

Here are some more tips –

• Don’t memorize individual notes, this will hinder you.
• Any bars that you find hard should be memorized beforehand.
• Looping your music will help when learning musical pieces

So there you have it, I tried to keep it as simple as possible for you. By doing this your confidence and progression will increase tenfold, as well as your ability to play piano songs.

Piano Lessons For Children


Piano Lessons For Children

Many parents like their child to learn an instrument; the piano is a popular choice. Children are easily inspired by the many artists that play the piano, so naturally it’s a good fit. So what are the benefits of playing the piano for children?

The main advantage of children learning the piano is undoubtedly coordination. The ability to play piano chords and certain notes together, and play music the way it’s meant to be is hugely beneficial for children. This is largely because hey have to use their fingers to put together different sequences, so that the music will flow.

Confidence. The ability to play an instrument that is as complex as the piano is a massive skill. It will most definitely give your child a sense of purpose and confidence, as they will feel good about themselves and will be used to performing in front of people.

Concentration is another huge asset that piano playing will give. Piano songs need to be played perfectly so there can’t be any mistakes, so your child will easily benefit from this.

Learning the piano from an early age is a skill for life. It could open up a wealth of opportunities for your child e.g. composing their own music and get into the music industry, some of the best musicians have progressed to a professional level and made it their profession.

On the other side there are also risks. If a child is not particularly enthusiastic after taking many lessons, then they will naturally want to stop learning. The cost of buying piano’s and taking lessons are not cheap, so a parent needs to monitor how the child feels when playing the piano.
