How to Play Piano
By Leo Prenev
Music is a word which carries many different meanings. For some people, it brings about joy and relaxation while at the same time for others, it can invoke passion and a yearning to earn money. Whatever you think of music, there is one thing that is certain. Music is here to stay.
The piano is one of the most widely recognized instruments around the world. Many countries and nations use this instrument in their music, and if you want to learn how to play the piano, all you need is some dedication and interest.
If you want one on one attention, I would advise you to find a decent piano teacher in your local area. A good way of doing this is through browsing the local newspaper or online classifieds.
Learning how to play the piano from DVD instruction videos is a great alternative to a local piano teacher. You don't have to pay $20 dollars a week and you save a great deal of money in the long run. You can put those savings into purchasing a piano if you so wish.
Once you take up music classes, it is necessary that you do your part and keep on top of the practice. By not practicing throughout the week, you will see a drop in skill and ultimately, a drop in self-confidence.
Some common terms used while playing the instrument are the pitch and the octave. Pitch denotes the piano notes according to its high or low sound. When the key is stuck and the sound produced it is either in high or low frequency. Note that the lowest frequency notes are situated to the far left of the piano and as you move to the right the frequency of the music notes increases.
The term octave refers to the twelve keys placed in intervals. Though they might have the same musical value and they might sound the same they have different frequencies. Seven octaves are present in a normal piano which means that there will be seven sets of seven notes situated in the piano.
It doesn't matter if you want to play piano for a hobby, or whether you want to do it for a living. Practice is what will take you that extra mile and give you the enjoyment for a lifetime.
