You have long dreamed of learning to play the piano and even familiarized yourself with musical notation, but for some reason your hands don’t want to listen to you? Some experienced music teachers call this phenomenon “hands-hooks” - this is when the fingers get confused, and it is not possible to make out even the simplest melody. In order to avoid such confusion, you need to learn the numbering of fingers for playing the piano and try to choose among the notes those in which the fingers are numbered. As a rule, these are children's notes for students in the first and fourth grades.
Once you have sorted out your fingers, you need to work out the correct fit in order to play the piano beautifully and aesthetically. The keyboard of a standard acoustic instrument has about 9 octaves, so the seat chair is always located in the center, opposite the first octave.
You can also navigate by the position of the pedals - the setting of the chair should be such that it is convenient to press them.
With the correct seating position for the instrument, the musician will be able to evenly cover the entire keyboard range of the piano.
Further, in order to learn to play the piano beautifully, it is important to work out the correct position of the hands. It is worth noting that in the game on this instrument, not only the brush is involved, but the whole hand, starting from the shoulder.
In order for beginner musicians to understand how it should look, they should imagine that droplets of water flow down hands, starting from the shoulder joint and ending with the fingers. It turns out that the hands should acquire a soft, falling position.
The main feature of playing the piano is that both hands perform the same actions.
This aspect makes playing the instrument easier (for example, on the violin, one hand picks the strings and the other moves the bow, learning how to work is a little more difficult).
And after a person learns to play the piano, he simply will not notice this feature, but at first it is worth paying attention to it. After all, it is important to lower your hands on the keyboard and raise them at the same time, beautifully and easily.
With the help of video lessons, learning to play the piano will be much easier. In such instructions, professionals always describe their every action in detail, which allows you to remember all the positions during the game faster and better.
And do not “run ahead of the engine”, trying to immediately understand the complex classical works. There are always a lot of difficult moments in them, which, with undeveloped motor skills of hands, is simply unrealistic to implement.
You need to start with scales and simple exercises that are printed in children's music books. With their help, everyone can learn to play the piano, remember the position of all fingers and the location of the keys on the keyboard of the instrument. And after the fluency of the fingers appears, and at the same time the melody will sound not just like a set of sounds, but express some sort of finished motive, we can proceed to the analysis of classical works. The main thing is to choose simple melodies in which there are no passages and notes of too short durations.
