It used to be that if you had piano lessons you would have to go through the routine of learning how to play your scales over and over and over again. You would have to learn how to sight read music so as to not look to see what your hands were doing. Yes this was the way to become a disciplined concert pianist. This relentless regime has turned many would be maestro away from making music altogether. I have written seven articles of which this is number three, each containing a little music lesson and sound information to help you get started and hopefully teach yourself.
Most people would like to play their favourite song on the piano and sing along even if they were sitting at home alone, to be able to play and just sing to yourself, wouldn't that be cool. Or sing to your loved one, perhaps that's going too far, LOL. You will be ecstatic to find out that you can with a little coaching, easily teach yourself to play music.
To me music should be fun, music should be easy, and should be accessible to everybody. You should know that playing the piano is achievable by anybody; you just need to know where to look. Learning to play the piano for fun is easy; becoming a concert pianist will take a bit longer. Therein lays the problem with a great deal of music teachers. They want to teach you all there is to know about music before you can play a decent sing along tune. I'm not saying you can't become a concert pianist, that's down to you and your ambition. But for now I would like to get you interested in playing the piano for fun; the serious stuff can come later.
