Instrumental learning is volitional by nature, and only by understanding the comparative nature of electronic keyboard and piano playing respectively can we guide and advise pupils towards musical learning outcomes that satisfy their personal interests and aptitudes.
A final challenge for keyboard teachers today is to show their pupils that playing for fun – while immensely valuable – need not be the end of the story. For the gifted player and committed musician, there are many opportunities for further development.
A committed keyboard player will usually want to explore not only the most advanced electronic keyboards but also synthesisers, pianos, and other instruments, both as a solo player and a member of groups or ensembles.
It is a common misconception among parents who wish their children to learn the piano that the portable electronic keyboard was basically developed as a "budget" and convenient alternative. Sometimes school teachers, heads and governors share this misconception. It is particularly unfortunate when piano teachers also appear to suffer from this same misconception.
