How do you play piano sheet music? (please help a beginner)?
Posted by admin
I really want to learn the piano, but we don’t have enough money for lessons (also why I only have a small keyboard we got for free) but that’s the best I can do. So, is there any good guide or something on how to play? I’m good at matching what I hear and can read notes, since I played violin for years, but the piano is so big and when I look at piano music I don’t understand it, and which note is where on the piano.
Thank you for the help.(:
the first thing you need to do is locate the Middle C key, which is right in the middle of the piano.
after that, you just count up and down in order,
A B C D E F G A… and so on.
so the key after Middle C is D, and the one before is B.
after that, just learn to match the notes on the pages with the keys, and you’ll do great! if you need to, put masking tape with the letters written on it on each key, to remind you.
i hope that helps!
