2019-08-12T21:18:24+01:00

Playing the piano is surely a fantastic way to develop your listening skills, as listening to the sound you produce when striking a key, and making sure that each note is played in the right manner within the musical context, is as important as playing.

Playing the piano will help you improve your memory

2019-08-16T18:00:07+01:00

Playing the piano will surely help you improve your memory immensely as this part of your brain will be activated as often as you play. You will be developing four sorts of memory at the same time: visual memory, digital memory, aural memory and mental memory. I do not believe that many activities offer such an opportunity!

If you take time to think about this concept, I am sure that you will find several situations when you would like to do or say something, but you are unable to express yourself [...]

2019-08-16T18:44:23+01:00

Don’t know how to read music? "I really want to play the piano, but I can't read music". This is a question asked by multiple people interested in playing the piano many a time. Well, lucky for you, if you ask the same question, it really is OK. Who in the world expects you to know? Music is like a foreign language and nobody has a clue how to say anything in French until they learn French. If you were to open a Spanish textbook for the first time you would not be a fluent speaker until you learnt [...]
