Comment on Beginner piano player, should I learn sheet music? by Grace

It would be indefinitely useful for you to learn your notes and chords. You can get someone to show you the notes, or just look them up on the internet. Without this, you will never learn to play with other musicians well and really create music. once you understand your instrument, you will be able to begin to play it well. plus reading isnt that hard….you just have to have someone show you how!

Comment on Poll-How does having a real grand piano make a beginner learn piano faster than having an electric keyboard? by =P

the depth of the keys of a keyboard doesnt make the same sound a real piano does
in other words, the keyboard is a recording so playing it is like typing on the computer
every letter is programmed out

Electric keyboards have a more tinny sound. Also, you have to apply more pressure on piano keys than on a keyboard, so often if someone learns to play on a keyboard, they will mess up on the piano because they are not used to having to press harder on the keys

In my opinion, playing piano by ear, and being able to sight read sheet music will make you a better piano player. I suggest you learn to play songs you really like.
If you're interested, you can download easy piano sheet music for popular songs and find piano method books for beginners at http://download-sheet-music-online.com/piano.html

Well I took lessons for 3 years and choir from my 7th grade year all the way up to my junoir year I forgot everything about sheet music!!! I can sing it if i hear it and i can play it if i hear it, but it takes me a while to get all the notes because you have to listen very carefully and know which key is which. I would learn sheet music though if you can and it will make it so much easier and quicker!

I have been playing since I was six. Sure you could learn your favorite by ear on the piano. But if you are wanting to go farther then that then you would want to learn how to read sheet music. It really isn't that hard to read. Once you know the notes then other things start to click. I would recomend the sheet music, it could save you a bit of frustration.

If you can't play by ear now, you won't be able to by learning piano.
Learning to read notes takes maybe a year to master, if you practice once a weekend, whereas playing the piano will take much longer to learn, since it is training your hands.

Unless you have some hidden talent, learning to read music will only help you in the long run.

i think you should learn most of the notes first then use sheet music as you go on and on then you learn more
