Do you want to learn how to play piano well? Whether you are new to piano and just want to learn how to get started or you have played before but need to renew your interest, I want to show you a few simple tips that will help in your quest. I surfed the net to identify some great tips and found lots and lots of piano lesson programs, but it was time consuming to determine which were best. I found that the best learn to play piano products were Learn and Master Piano by Will Barrow and Rocket Piano by Ruth Searle.
How about instead of talking about the program now, I tell you about those 3 tips. Most piano plays at first don't realize how important learning how to read sheet music is. Most of the time, people are too eager to play they forget and then they lose interest when they hit road blocks and realize that they have to know how to read sheet music in order to get any better. Remember the old saying, you need to learn to crawl before you walk.
The first tip for you is to look at your music as much as possible if you can. If you are starting off and trying to do this, good luck because it will be hard. But after practicing this for a while, you'll be able to master it.
Tip #2, learn to read ahead. Basically you are going to want to read a few notes ahead in the sheet music, that way you aren't hanging on each note progression when it comes into play.
Lastly, you'll need to learn how to play scales and chords, and understand them. This will increase your accuracy of the notes and speed very greatly.
How are you going to learn as much as possible without wasting time? In order to learn how to play right, you'll need lessons. So about that training. You can either hire a tutor, do it alone and try to learn on your own, take a class, or you can pick up a program online that teaches you using DVD's and online computer training. Don't take my word for it, read what the other customers had to say about it in the Rocket Piano Review at ReviewMOZ?.
