It is a common misconception to think that playing the piano is one of the most difficult things on earth. The truth is that, when compared to guitars and other string instruments, playing piano is somewhat on the easier scale. The simple reason for this fact is that, in the piano, every single note is clearly defined as against the guitar or other string instruments that are tiny in nature. But if you lay hands on a piano, theres enough space for you to let the fingers do the walking and create that beautiful piece of music.

The only golden rule you need to follow when it comes to the piano is to practice! Practice! And practice to no end! Practice makes us perfect. That is why you see people who have been playing piano from their childhood doing miracles on the keyboard. The secret is none other than holy practice.

As anything else in life, playing the piano needs to be learned from step one. Usually, you will be asked to draw and recognize a music staff. For those who are wondering what a staff is, it consists of five horizontal lines and four spaces on a manuscript while harboring music notations.

The clefs help you to distinguish the notations that are relevant to right and left hand, respectively. The right hand notations are shown by the treble clef and the left hand notations are shown by bass clef. Music manuscripts will have other signs and instructions to adhere to while playing a piece but at initial stages of learning piano music, these other instructions should not bother you.

It is a must that you learn how to read notes on the go. Some people make the mistake of translating music notations to alphabetical letters before playing. This is a huge no-no that should be avoided in piano music. So have patience and be dedicated to interpret music notations. In no time, you will become an expert.

On your first attempt to learn piano, you will need to learn how to locate the middle C as it is the most important note of all on a music script. Once you know the middle C it is easy for you to recognize rest of the keys.

Many beginners are inquisitive to learn the black notes that make wonderful sounds. Those are either sharps or flats of white keys that are on the keyboard. The concept of sharps and flats are quite easy to learn and interesting to pursue. So if you have made up your mind to get serious about playing the piano, there are several things you should do.

As you may have realized by now, playing the piano sounds horrible but is not as bad when you get down to doing it. The vital points to remember are that it is a systematic which needs guidance and that it needs patience and dedication from part of the student. So if you are up to the challenge, simply do some online research on piano music and get yourself a piano tutor, even if it means enrolling in a virtual piano music class. Happy playing.
