Play The Piano - Start With The Chords



By: Angel Smith

If you or someone in your family wants to learn to play the piano, you'll first need to familiarize yourself with the chords. By learning the chords first you will speed up the process of learning the piano. It's not that hard to learn the chords no matter what your age. So now when you look at the keyboard it won't look so intimidating.

The first piano chord you will learn is the C chord. It's the easiest chord to learn and hopefully will help you on the next chords. Each chord becomes a little more difficult than the last. But with constant practice it should become easier. As most people know, the white keys on the piano named C D E F G A B are also the notes that make up the C chord. With the help of your instructional materials, you can learn all the other chords.

You may ask how will you learn all the chords. There are a variety of instruction materials in stores and online. Find one that's best for your level of knowledge. Most likely you'll start as a beginner which is great as you'll develop good habits required for playing the piano. So jump in and start to learn the chords. After you begin to understand each set of chords then its practice, practice, practice.

Learn by repetition meaning every time you learn a chord keep playing that chord until you have mastered it. When you move on to the next chord do the same but include the first chord. Keep building on your foundation until you can play all the chords. Make sure during all of this practice that you also master proper positioning of your hands and fingers.

If you have practiced all of the chords and feel somewhat comfortable with their placement you should be able to read a wide assortment of sheet music. Because you've memorized all of the piano chords you're now learning to read sheet music. This is a great way to play the piano and have fun with it.

In order to get started, begin shopping for instruction materials you feel will meet your needs. Selecting the right beginner materials is essential. Ask someone in the store to point out the most popular piano instruction manuals. You should be looking for instruction materials that make getting started easy but also challenges you later on.

To get a head start, play the piano by learning the chords first. You may be surprised how quickly you can entertain yourself and others. To sit down and play beautiful music is soothing to your soul and therapeutic for your mind. Stay focused and again practice the chords everyday.
